Detail
| Felipe Andres Manzano discovered that mplayer, a multimedia player, is vulnerable to several integer overflows in the Real video stream demuxing code. These flaws could allow an attacker to cause a denial of service (a crash) or potentially the execution of arbitrary code by supplying a maliciously crafted video file. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0~rc1-12etch5. For he unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0~rc2-18. We recommend that you upgrade your mplayer packages. |
