+ <background>
+ <p>
+ xine-lib is the xine core engine. xine is a free multimedia
+ player. It plays CDs, DVDs, and VCDs, and can also decode other common
+ multimedia formats.
+ </p>

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Federico L. Bossi Bonin discovered that when handling MPEG streams
+ xine-lib fails to make a proper boundary check of the input data
+ supplied by the user before copying it to an insufficiently sized
+ memory buffer.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user to play a specially-crafted
+ MPEG file, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
+ permissions of the user running the application.
+ </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 "&gt;=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.2_pre20060328-r1"</code>
