Debian: DSA-2415-1: libmodplug security update
Summary
Several vulnerabilities that can lead to the execution of arbitrary code
have been discovered in libmodplug, a library for mod music based on
ModPlug. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies
the following issues:
CVE-2011-1761
epiphant discovered that the abc file parser is vulnerable to several
stack-based buffer overflows that potentially lead to the execution
of arbitrary code.
CVE-2011-2911
Hossein Lotfi of Secunia discovered that the CSoundFile::ReadWav
function is vulnerable to an integer overflow which leads to a
heap-based buffer overflow. An attacker can exploit this flaw to
potentially execute arbitrary code by tricking a victim into opening
crafted WAV files.
CVE-2011-2912
Hossein Lotfi of Secunia discovered that the CSoundFile::ReadS3M
function is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. An attacker
can exploit this flaw to potentially execute arbitrary code by
tricking a victim into opening crafted S3M files.
CVE-2011-2913
Hossein Lotfi of Secunia discovered that the CSoundFile::ReadAMS
function suffers from an off-by-one vulnerability that leads to
memory corruption. An attacker can exploit this flaw to potentially
execute arbitrary code by tricking a victim into opening crafted AMS
files.
CVE-2011-2914
It was discovered that the CSoundFile::ReadDSM function suffers from an off-by-one vulnerability that leads to memory corruption.
An attacker can exploit this flaw to potentially execute arbitrary
code by tricking a victim into opening crafted DSM files.
CVE-2011-2915
It was discovered that the CSoundFile::ReadAMS2 function suffers from an off-by-one vulnerability that leads to memory corruption.
An attacker can exploit this flaw to potentially execute arbitrary
code by tricking a victim into opening crafted AMS files.
For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1:0.8.8.1-1+squeeze2.
For the testing (wheezy) and unstable (sid) distributions, this problem
has been fixed in version 1:0.8.8.4-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your libmodplug packages.
