Background ========== Audacious is a media player that has been forked from Beep Media Player. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-sound/audacious < 1.1.0 >= 1.1.0 Description =========== Luigi Auriemma has found that the adplug library fails to verify the size of the destination buffers in the unpacking instructions, resulting in various possible heap and buffer overflows. Impact ====== An attacker can entice a user to load a specially crafted media file, resulting in a crash or possible execution of arbitrary code. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All Audacious users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/audacious-1.1.0" References ========== [ 1 ] BugTraq Announcement http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/439432/30/0/threaded [ 2 ] CVE-2006-3581 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-3581 [ 3 ] CVE-2006-3582 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-3582 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200607-13.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
