Description:
Tobias Klein has reported some vulnerabilities in Amarok, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) Two integer overflow errors exist within the "Audible::Tag::readTag()" function in src/metadata/audible/audibletag.cpp. These can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows via specially crafted Audible Audio files.

2) Two errors within the "Audible::Tag::readTag()" function in src/metadata/audible/audibletag.cpp can be exploited to corrupt arbitrary memory via specially crafted Audible Audio files.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 2.0.1.1.
