Mandriva Linux Security Advisory : xine-lib (MDVSA-2009:319)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 43022

Synopsis

The remote Mandriva Linux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

Vulnerabilities have been discovered and corrected in xine-lib :

Failure on Ogg files manipulation can lead remote attackers to cause a denial of service by using crafted files (CVE-2008-3231).

Failure on manipulation of either MNG or Real or MOD files can lead remote attackers to cause a denial of service by using crafted files (CVE: CVE-2008-5233).

Heap-based overflow allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using Quicktime media files holding crafted metadata (CVE-2008-5234).

Heap-based overflow allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using either crafted Matroska or Real media files (CVE-2008-5236).

Failure on manipulation of either MNG or Quicktime files can lead remote attackers to cause a denial of service by using crafted files (CVE-2008-5237).

Multiple heap-based overflow on input plugins (http, net, smb, dvd, dvb, rtsp, rtp, pvr, pnm, file, gnome_vfs, mms) allow attackers to execute arbitrary code by handling that input channels. Further this problem can even lead attackers to cause denial of service (CVE-2008-5239).

Heap-based overflow allows attackers to execute arbitrary code by using crafted Matroska media files (MATROSKA_ID_TR_CODECPRIVATE track entry element). Further a failure on handling of Real media files (CONT_TAG header) can lead to a denial of service attack (CVE-2008-5240).

Integer underflow allows remote attackers to cause denial of service by using Quicktime media files (CVE-2008-5241).

Failure on manipulation of Real media files can lead remote attackers to cause a denial of service by indexing an allocated buffer with a certain input value in a crafted file (CVE-2008-5243).

Vulnerabilities of unknown impact - possibly buffer overflow - caused by a condition of video frame preallocation before ascertaining the required length in V4L video input plugin (CVE-2008-5245).

Heap-based overflow allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using crafted media files. This vulnerability is in the manipulation of ID3 audio file data tagging mainly used in MP3 file formats (CVE-2008-5246).

Integer overflow in the qt_error parse_trak_atom function in demuxers/demux_qt.c in xine-lib 1.1.16.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Quicktime movie file with a large count value in an STTS atom, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-1274)

Integer overflow in the 4xm demuxer (demuxers/demux_4xm.c) in xine-lib 1.1.16.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a 4X movie file with a large current_track value, a similar issue to CVE-2009-0385 (CVE-2009-0698)

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers

This update fixes these issues.
