+ Heap overflows have been found in the code handling RealMedia RTSP
+ and Microsoft Media Services streams over TCP (MMST).

+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ By setting up a malicious server and enticing a user to use its
+ streaming data, a remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code
+ on the client computer with the permissions of the user running any
+ multimedia frontend making use of the xine-lib library.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All xine-lib users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose media-libs/xine-lib</code>
