Summary

The remote host is missing an update to xine-lib announced via advisory MDVSA-2009:299.

Insight

Insight

Vulnerabilities have been discovered and corrected in xine-lib: - Integer overflow in the qt_error parse_trak_atom function in demuxers/demux_qt.c in xine-lib 1.1.16.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Quicktime movie file with a large count value in an STTS atom, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-1274) - Integer overflow in the 4xm demuxer (demuxers/demux_4xm.c) in xine-lib 1.1.16.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a 4X movie file with a large current_track value, a similar issue to CVE-2009-0385 (CVE-2009-0698) This update fixes these issues. Affected: 2009.0
