Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in AlsaPlayer, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors in the vorbis input plug-in when processing .OGG files. These can be exploited to cause buffer overflows via a specially crafted .OGG file with overly long comments.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
