Synopsis
========

A buffer overflow in VLC might allow local or remote attacker(s) to
execute arbitrary code.

Background
==========

VLC is a cross-platform media player and streaming server.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 media-video/vlc < 3.0.10 >= 3.0.10

Description
===========

A buffer overflow in DecodeBlock in sdl_image.c was discovered.

Impact
======

A remote user could craft a specifically crafted image file that could
execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service.

Workaround
==========

The user should refrain from opening files from untrusted third parties
or accessing untrusted remote sites (or disable the VLC browser
plugins), until they upgrade.

Resolution
==========

All VLC users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/vlc-3.0.10"
