Description:
Luigi Auriemma has reported some vulnerabilities in xine-lib, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to integer overflow errors when allocating memory in src/demuxers/demux_flv.c, src/demuxers/demux_qt.c, src/demuxers/demux_real.c, src/demuxers/demux_wc3movie.c, src/demuxers/ebml.c, and src/demuxers/demux_film.c. These can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows via overly large fields included in e.g. FLV, MOV, RM, MVE, MKV, and CAK files.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.1.11. Prior versions may also be affected.
Solution:
Update to version 1.1.11.1.
