[slackware-security] xine-lib (SSA:2005-283-01)
New xine-lib packages are available for Slackware 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2,
and -current to fix a security issue. A format string bug may allow the
execution of arbitrary code as the user running a xine-lib linked
application. The attacker must provide (by uploading or running a server)
specially crafted CDDB information and then get the user to play the
referenced audio CD.
The official Xine advisory may be found here:
http://xinehq.de/index.php/security/XSA-2005-1
Here are the details from the Slackware 10.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/xine-lib-1.0.3a-i686-1.tgz: Upgraded to xine-lib-1.0.3a.
This fixes a format string bug where an attacker, if able to upload
malicious information to a CDDB server and then get a local user to play
a certain audio CD, may be able to run arbitrary code on the machine as
the user running the xine-lib linked application.
