The XM loader used by Cheese Tracker is affected by a buffer-overflow vulnerability which happens when it tries to store the exceeding data available in the input file in the junkbuster buffer of only 500 bytes. From cheesetracker/loaders/loader_xm.cpp: Loader::Error Loader_XM::load_instrument_internal(Instrument *p_instr,bool p_xi,int p_cpos, int p_hsize, int p_sampnum) { ... if (!p_xi) { if ((reader.get_file_pos()-p_cpos)<p_hsize) { Uint8 junkbuster[500]; //printf("extra junk XM instrument in header! hsize is %i, extra junk: %i\n",p_hsize,(reader.get_file_pos()-p_cpos)); reader.get_byte_array((Uint8*)junkbuster,p_hsize-(reader.get_file_pos()-p_cpos)); } ... http://aluigi.altervista.org/adv/cheesebof-adv.txt
The bug has been open for two months and I don't see a new release on the cheesetracker website. i would propose to mask this in a few days, comments?
Debian addressed this in DSA-1166-1 <http://www.us.debian.org/security/2006/dsa-1166> so a patch can be found over at Debian sound, please provide an updated ebuild

hi arches, please test and stable 0.9.9-r1. Thanks
