iSEC Partners Security Advisory - 2007-002-flactools
http://www.isecpartners.com
--------------------------------------------

flac123 0.0.9 - Stack overflow in comment parsing

Vendor URL: http://flac-tools.sourceforge.net/
Severity: High (Allows for arbitrary code execution)
Author: David Thiel <david[at]isecpartners[dot]com>

Vendor notified: 2007-06-05
Public release: 2007-06-28
Systems affected: Verified code execution on FreeBSD 6.2 - should affect most 
	systems.
Advisory URL: http://www.isecpartners.com/advisories/2007-002-flactools.txt

Summary:
--------
flac123, also known as flac-tools, is vulnerable to a buffer overflow in
vorbis comment parsing. This allows for the execution of arbitrary code.

Details:
--------
The function local__vcentry_parse_value() in vorbiscomment.c does not
correctly handle a long value_length, causing it to overflow the buffer
"dest" during memcpy().

Fix Information:
----------------
This is the sole issue corrected in version 0.0.10.

Thanks to:
----------
Dan Johnson for quickly producing the fixed version.

yep, 0.0.11 is now in tree fixing this issue (and as a bonus we can drop all of our patches since they have been merged upstream)

tested it only with flac-1.2.0 so archteams/archtesters have to test it with stable version of flac.
Comment 4 Markus Ullmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-08-20 20:27:24 UTC
Works fine here. Stable on x86
Comment 5 Gustavo Zacarias (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-08-21 14:59:56 UTC
sparc stable.
Comment 6 Jonas Pedersen 2007-08-21 16:40:23 UTC
