+ <p>
+ libvorbis is the reference implementation of the Xiph.org Ogg Vorbis
+ audio file format. It is used by many applications for playback of Ogg
+ Vorbis files.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Will Drewry of the Google Security Team reported multiple
+ vulnerabilities in libvorbis:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ A zero value for "codebook.dim" is not properly handled, leading to a
+ crash, infinite loop or triggering an integer overflow
+ (CVE-2008-1419).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ An integer overflow in "residue partition value" evaluation might lead
+ to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2008-1420).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ An integer overflow in a certain "quantvals" and "quantlist"
+ calculation might lead to a heap-based buffer overflow
+ (CVE-2008-1423).
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by enticing a
+ user to open a specially crafted Ogg Vorbis file or network stream with
+ an application using libvorbis. This might lead to the execution of
+ arbitrary code with the privileges of the user playing the file or a
+ Denial of Service by a crash or CPU consumption.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All libvorbis users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/libvorbis-1.2.1_rc1"</code>
+ </resolution>
