CVE-2013-1954 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2013-1954): The ASF Demuxer (modules/demux/asf/asf.c) in VideoLAN VLC media player 2.0.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted ASF movie that triggers an out-of-bounds read. 2.0.7 has been stabled in the meantime. GLSA request filed. This issue was resolved and addressed in GLSA 201411-01 at http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-201411-01.xml by GLSA coordinator Sean Amoss (ackle). |
