[slackware-security]  xine-lib (SSA:2005-283-01)

New xine-lib packages are available for Slackware 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2,
and -current to fix a security issue.  A format string bug may allow the
execution of arbitrary code as the user running a xine-lib linked
application.  The attacker must provide (by uploading or running a server)
specially crafted CDDB information and then get the user to play the
referenced audio CD.

The official Xine advisory may be found here:

  http://xinehq.de/index.php/security/XSA-2005-1


Here are the details from the Slackware 10.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/xine-lib-1.0.3a-i686-1.tgz:  Upgraded to xine-lib-1.0.3a.
  This fixes a format string bug where an attacker, if able to upload malicious
  information to a CDDB server and then get a local user to play a certain
  audio CD, may be able to run arbitrary code on the machine as the user
  running the xine-lib linked application.
  For more information, see:

  (* Security fix *)
