Detail

Problem Description:

Updated gstreamer-plugins-good packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:

GStreamer is a streaming media framework, based on graphs of filters which operate on media data. GStreamer Good Plug-ins is a collection of well-supported, good quality GStreamer plug-ins.

Multiple integer overflow flaws, that could lead to a buffer overflow, were found in the GStreamer Good Plug-ins PNG decoding handler. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG file that would cause an application using the GStreamer Good Plug-ins library to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running the application when parsed. (CVE-2009-1932)

All users of gstreamer-plugins-good are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct these issues. After installing the update, all applications using GStreamer Good Plug-ins (such as some media playing applications) must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/docs/DOC-11259

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

504199 - CVE-2009-1932 gstreamer-plugins-good: PNG decoder integer overflow

Description: Tielei Wang discovered that GStreamer Good Plugins did not correctly handle malformed PNG image files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted PNG image file with a GStreamer application, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash, or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program.

Title: DSA-1839-1 gst-plugins-good0.10 -- integer overflow
Description: It has been discovered that gst-plugins-good0.10, the GStreamer plugins from the "good" set, are prone to an integer overflow, when processing a large PNG file. This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. For the stable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 0.10.8-4.1~lenny2. For the oldstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 0.10.4-4+etch1. Packages for the s390 and hppa architectures will be released once they are available. For the testing distribution and the unstable distribution, this problem has been fixed in version 0.10.15-2. We recommend that you upgrade your gst-plugins-good0.10 packages.
