Synopsis:	Moderate: gstreamer-plugins-good security update
Issue date:	2009-06-25
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-1932

Multiple integer overflow flaws, that could lead to a buffer overflow,
were found in the GStreamer Good Plug-ins PNG decoding handler. An
attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG file that would cause an
application using the GStreamer Good Plug-ins library to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code as the user running the application
when parsed. (CVE-2009-1932)

After installing the update, all applications using GStreamer Good
Plug-ins (such as some media playing applications) must be restarted for
the changes to take effect.
