The VLC developers are aware of SA41810 and it is not fixed in VLC 1.1.9. Please see this thread in the VLC forums: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=877... As you can see from that thread, the VLC team is looking for someone to maintain the Mozilla and ActiveX plugins. If that is your idea of a fun time, please contact them! |

[quote=p36806].. according heise-online vlc 1.1.9 now is secure again.. ... follow this links: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/VLC-ist-wie... http://www.videolan.org/vlc/releases/1.1.9.html[/q... Those links show that the vulnerabilities given in SA44022 and SA44054 have been fixed in VLC 1.1.9. Indeed, Securia PSI shows that VLC 1.1.9 is secure. However, the vulnerability in SA41810 refers to the Mozilla and ActiveX plugins. I don't see that VLC claims that these have been fixed. And the link above: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=877... implies that it is not fixed. |

Hi , I certainly take the "unresolved" as stated by Rémi Denis-Courmont in the linked VidoeLAN Forum as meaning "not fixed/patched" , at least as far as Secunia are concerned regarding SA41810 . That is certainly the clearest statement as yet made from a "reliable" source on the VLC Player side of things . Take care Anthony -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |
