Severity: Normal Title: xine-ui: Format string vulnerabilities Date: January 23, 2007 Bugs: #161558 ID: 200701-18

Synopsis ========
xine-ui improperly handles format strings, possibly allowing for the execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
xine-ui is a skin-based user interface for xine. xine is a free multimedia player. It plays CDs, DVDs, and VCDs, and can also decode other common multimedia formats.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 xine-ui < 0.99.5_pre20060716 >= 0.99.5_pre20060716
Description ===========
Due to the improper handling and use of format strings, the errors_create_window() function in errors.c does not safely write data to memory.
Impact ======
An attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted media file with xine-ui, and possibly execute arbitrary code.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All xine-ui users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/xine-ui-0.99.5_pre20060716"
