Debian Security Advisory DSA-1644-1 [email protected]

Package : mplayer
Vulnerability : integer overflow
Problem type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-3827
Debian Bug : 500683
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.
