openSUSE Security Update : mpv (openSUSE-2018-173)
high Nessus Plugin ID 106891
Language:
Synopsis
The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.Description
This update for mpv fixes the following issues :MPV was updated to version 0.27.2
Security issues fixed :
- CVE-2018-6360: Additional fix for where mpv allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted website, because it read HTML documents containing VIDEO elements, and accepts arbitrary URLs in a src attribute without a protocol whitelist in player/lua/ytdl_hook.lua. For example, an av://lavfi:ladspa=file= URL signifies that the product should call dlopen on a shared object file located at an arbitrary local pathname. The issue exists because the product does not consider that youtube-dl can provide a potentially unsafe URL. (boo#1077894)
Fixes and minor enhancements :
- ytdl_hook: whitelist subtitle URLs as well (#5456)
