+ <description>
+ <p>
+ iDEFENSE, Ariel Berkman and the MPlayer development team found
+ multiple vulnerabilities in MPlayer. These include potential heap
+ overflows in Real RTSP and pnm streaming code, stack overflows in MMST
+ streaming code and multiple buffer overflows in BMP demuxer and mp3lib
+ code.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could craft a malicious file or design a
+ malicious streaming server. Using MPlayer to view this file or connect
+ to this server could trigger an overflow and execute
+ attacker-controlled code.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All MPlayer users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre5-r5&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
