Detail

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in mplayer, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed TwinVQ file (CVE-2008-5616), and in ffmpeg, as used by mplayer, related to the execution of DTS generation code (CVE-2008-4866) and incorrect handling of DCA_MAX_FRAME_SIZE value (CVE-2008-4867).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2009-0385 It was discovered that watching a malformed 4X movie file could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2008-4866 It was discovered that multiple buffer overflows could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. CVE-2008-5616 It was discovered that watching a malformed TwinVQ file could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. For the oldstable distribution, these problems have been fixed in version 1.0~rc1-12etch7. For the stable distribution, mplayer links against ffmpeg-debian.
