{"id":"MGASA-2014-0296","summary":"Updated live555, vlc & mplayer packages fix several issues","details":"Updated live, mplayer, and vlc packages fix security vulnerabilities:\n\nThe live555 RTSP streaming server and client libraries before 2013.11.29 are\nvulnerable to buffer overflows in RTSP command parsing that potentially allow\nfor arbitrary code execution when connected to a malicious client or server.\n\nThe RTSP client streaming code in the mplayer and vlc packages is built from\nthe live555 code in the live package.  They have been rebuilt with the updated\nlive packages.\n\nThe vlc packages have also been updated to 2.0.10 for Mageia 3 and 2.1.5 for\nMageia 4, fixing several other bugs and potential security issues.  The Mageia\n3 update fixes a buffer overflow in the mp4a packetizer (CVE-2013-4388) that\nwas fixed upstream in 2.0.9.\n\nFinally, the mplayer update for Mageia 3 includes two upstream patches; one\ndisables playlist parsing for security reasons and the other fixes mp3\ndecoding cutting out early (mga#10478).\n","modified":"2026-02-04T02:34:45.962303Z","published":"2014-07-26T12:06:27Z","related":["CVE-2013-4388"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.html"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"http://live555.com/liveMedia/public/changelog.txt"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"http://www.videolan.org/developers/vlc-branch/NEWS"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-announce/2013-May/000070.html"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.debian.org/security/2014/dsa-2973"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10478"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13705"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"live","ecosystem":"Mageia:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/live?arch=source&distro=mageia-3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2014.07.04-1.mga3"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"vlc","ecosystem":"Mageia:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/vlc?arch=source&distro=mageia-3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.0.10-1.mga3"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"mplayer","ecosystem":"Mageia:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/mplayer?arch=source&distro=mageia-3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.1-13.r35916.3.mga3"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"vlc","ecosystem":"Mageia:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/vlc?arch=source&distro=mageia-3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.0.10-1.mga3.tainted"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"tainted"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"mplayer","ecosystem":"Mageia:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/mplayer?arch=source&distro=mageia-3"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.1-13.r35916.3.mga3.tainted"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"tainted"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"live","ecosystem":"Mageia:4","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/live?arch=source&distro=mageia-4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2014.07.04-1.mga4"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"vlc","ecosystem":"Mageia:4","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/vlc?arch=source&distro=mageia-4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.1.5-1.mga4"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"mplayer","ecosystem":"Mageia:4","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/mplayer?arch=source&distro=mageia-4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.1.1-3.r36361.3.mga4"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"core"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"vlc","ecosystem":"Mageia:4","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/vlc?arch=source&distro=mageia-4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.1.5-1.mga4.tainted"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"tainted"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}},{"package":{"name":"mplayer","ecosystem":"Mageia:4","purl":"pkg:rpm/mageia/mplayer?arch=source&distro=mageia-4"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.1.1-3.r36361.3.mga4.tainted"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"section":"tainted"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://advisories.mageia.org/MGASA-2014-0296.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3","credits":[{"name":"Mageia","contact":["https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Packages_Security_Team"],"type":"COORDINATOR"}]}
