Detail

Synopsis

A buffer overflow vulnerability has been discovered in Streamripper, allowing for user-assisted execution of arbitrary code.

Background

Streamripper is a tool for extracting and recording mp3 files from a Shoutcast stream.

Description

Chris Rohlf discovered several boundary errors in the httplib_parse_sc_header() function when processing HTTP headers.

Impact

A remote attacker could entice a user to connect to a malicious streaming server, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Streamripper.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All Streamripper users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/streamripper-1.62.2"
