DSA-1644-1: New mplayer packages fix integer overflows

Posted by Bob on: 10/05/2008 10:00 PM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]

The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:

Debian Security Advisory DSA-1644-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Devin Carraway
October 05, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : mplayer
Vulnerability : integer overflow
Problem type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-3827
Debian Bug : 500683

Felipe Andres Manzano discovered that mplayer, a multimedia player, is
vulnerable to several integer overflows in the Real video stream
demuxing code. These flaws could allow an attacker to cause a denial
of service (a crash) or potentially the execution of arbitrary code by
supplying a maliciously crafted video file.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.0~rc1-12etch5. For he unstable distribution (sid), these
problems have been fixed in version 1.0~rc2-18.

We recommend that you upgrade your mplayer packages.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
