- (MPlayer: Multiple overflows)
-
-
- iDEFENSE, Ariel Berkman and the MPlayer development team found
- multiple vulnerabilities in MPlayer. These include potential heap
- overflows in Real RTSP and pnm streaming code, stack overflows in MMST
- streaming code and multiple buffer overflows in BMP demuxer and mp3lib
- code.
-
- Impact
-
- A remote attacker could craft a malicious file or design a
- malicious streaming server. Using MPlayer to view this file or connect
- to this server could trigger an overflow and execute
- attacker-controlled code.
-
- Workaround
-
- There is no known workaround at this time.

- Solution:
- All MPlayer users should upgrade to the latest version:
- # emerge --sync
- # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre5-r5"
-

- Risk factor : Medium
