Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in xine-lib, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) A boundary error within the VideoCD functionality when reading ISO disk labels can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by passing an overly long disk label.

2) A boundary error within the handling of text subtitles can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow and may allow arbitrary code execution via a specially crafted file.

3) A boundary error within the DVD subpicture decoder can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow. This may allow execution of arbitrary code via e.g. a malicious MPEG file.
