Synopsis ========
xine-lib contains a format string error in CDDB response handling that may be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
Background ==========
xine-lib is a multimedia library which can be utilized to create multimedia frontends. It includes functions to retrieve information about audio CD contents from public CDDB servers.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-libs/xine-lib < 1.1.0-r5 >= 1.1.0-r5 *>= 1.0.1-r4 *>= 1_rc8-r2
Description ===========
Ulf Harnhammar discovered a format string bug in the routines handling CDDB server response contents.
Impact ======
An attacker could submit malicious information about an audio CD to a public CDDB server (or impersonate a public CDDB server). When the victim plays this CD on a multimedia frontend relying on xine-lib, it could end up executing arbitrary code.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All xine-lib users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose media-libs/xine-lib
References ==========
