Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-02-23 21:38:34 UTC
CVE-2009-0698 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-0698):
  Integer overflow in the 4xm demuxer (demuxers/demux_4xm.c) in
  xine-lib 1.1.16.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
  service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a 4X movie
  file with a large current_track value, a similar issue to
  CVE-2009-0385.
Comment 1 Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-02-23 21:44:33 UTC
The release notes say:
"This release contains one new security fix.
It also contains some corrections of previous security fixes."

Changes:
* Build fixes related to ImageMagick 6.4 & later.
* Fix an error in Matroska PTS calculation.
* Some front ends hang due to the hang fixes in 1.1.16. Fix
  this by removing a break statement.
* Fix broken size checks in various input plugins
  (ref. CVE-2008-5239).
* More malloc checking (ref. CVE-2008-5240).
* Fix race conditions in gapless_switch
  (ref. kde bug #180339)
* Fix a possible integer overflow in the 4XM demuxer.

While this is good to have it stable I would have prefered seeing it handled in bug #249041 where it seems my comments got ignored and would appreciate if you could sort this mess out, thanks.
