Description Christian Hoffmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-05-14 15:01:22 UTC
From $URL:

Will Drewry of the Google Security Team reported several flaws in the way
libvorbis processed audio data. An attacker could create a carefully
crafted OGG audio file in such a way that it could cause an application
linked with libvorbis to crash, or execute arbitrary code when it was
opened. (CVE-2008-1419, CVE-2008-1420, CVE-2008-1423)

Moreover, additional OGG file sanity-checks have been added to prevent
possible exploitation of similar issues in the future.

Comment 1 Christian Hoffmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-05-14 15:10:11 UTC
Setting whiteboard.
Does any software bundle libvorbis? (embedded-code-copies from the security overlay doesn't list any)
Comment 2 Alexis Ballier gentoo-dev 2008-05-17 10:51:41 UTC
1.2.0-r1 has the patches
Comment 3 Giacomo Perale 2008-05-18 08:58:41 UTC
The patches libvorbis-1.2.0-CVE-2008-1419.patch and libvorbis-1.2.0-CVE-2008-1420.patch don't apply here.

Yep they had dos line endings, thanks to dleverton for pointing that. It should be better now.
Comment 5 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-05-18 13:29:24 UTC
Thanks for patching so far. There are some issues that are not covered in our bug report, and so did not make it into your patches:

(1) vorbis comment length checks
https://trac.xiph.org/changeset/14502

(2) "Additional bulletproofing to hufftree decoding"
https://trac.xiph.org/changeset/14811

Both are what was called "additional sanity-checks" at the top, and might lead to buffer-overread / overflow situations.


Furthermore, an 1.2.1-rc1 is out with all the patches, and I guess one could just ping Ralph to release the final:

Comment 6 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-10 08:02:30 UTC
Alexis/Sound maintainers, is there any update here? I would really like to have a later version in stable that either includes the additional patches, or is based on a current SVN snapshot. I talked to Ralph Giles, and he confirmed that the 1.2.1 rc1 is good on linux, and so is the current trunk. The reason for the delay of the release was build problems on Windows.
Comment 7 Ben de Groot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-12 12:07:34 UTC
1.2.1_rc1 committed to portage cvs
Comment 8 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-12 12:35:36 UTC
Thanks, Ben. Do you want to keep this in ~arch for a few days, or go stabling right away?
Comment 9 Ben de Groot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-12 13:11:41 UTC
I'd say go ahead with stabling, as there are no issues on linux reported upstream, and everything on my end works fine.
Comment 10 Robert Buchholz (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-12 13:50:53 UTC

====amd64====

1. Compiles fine.
2. Installs with no errors/warnings.
3. All things on my system that depend still link/run with the new libvorbis.
