openSUSE Security Update : mpg123 (openSUSE-2017-1035)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 103203

Language:

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

This update for mpg123 fixes the following issues :

 - Update to version 1.25.6

 - Hotfix for bug 255: Overflow reading frame data bits in layer II decoding. Now, all-zero data is returned if the frame data is exhausted. This might have a slight impact on performance, but not easily measurable so far.

 - Update to version 1.25.5

 - Avoid another buffer read overflow in the ID3 parser on 32 bit platforms (bug 254). (CVE-2017-12797/boo#1056999)

 - Update to version 1.25.4 libmpg123 :

 - Prevent harmless call to memcpy(NULL, NULL, 0).

 - More early checking of ID3v2 encoding values to avoid bogus text being stored.

Solution

Update the affected mpg123 packages.
