Synopsis ========
Two vulnerabilities have been found in xine-lib which could lead to the remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
xine-lib is a multimedia library which can be utilized to create multimedia frontends.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-libs/xine-lib < 1.0-r2 >= 1.0-r2 *>= 1_rc6-r2
Description ===========
Heap overflows have been found in the code handling RealMedia RTSP and Microsoft Media Services streams over TCP (MMST).
Impact ======
By setting up a malicious server and enticing a user to use its streaming data, a remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code on the client computer with the permissions of the user running any multimedia frontend making use of the xine-lib library.
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
