Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Multiple vulnerabilities in ModPlug could result in execution of |
| 19 |
arbitrary code or Denial of Service. |

| 21 |
Background |
| 22 |
========== |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
ModPlug is a library for playing MOD-like music. |

Description |
| 35 |
=========== |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ModPlug: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
* The ReadS3M method in load_s3m.cpp fails to validate user-supplied |
| 40 |
information, which could cause a stack-based buffer overflow |
| 41 |
(CVE-2011-1574). |
| 42 |
* The "CSoundFile::ReadWav()" function in load_wav.cpp contains an |
| 43 |
integer overflow which could cause a heap-based buffer overflow |
| 44 |
(CVE-2011-2911). |
| 45 |
* The "CSoundFile::ReadS3M()" function in load_s3m.cpp contains |
| 46 |
multiple boundary errors which could cause a stack-based buffer |
| 47 |
overflow (CVE-2011-2912). |
| 48 |
* The "CSoundFile::ReadAMS()" function in load_ams.cpp contains an |
| 49 |
off-by-one error which could cause memory corruption (CVE-2011-2913). |
| 50 |
* The "CSoundFile::ReadDSM()" function in load_dms.cpp contains an |
| 51 |
off-by-one error which could cause memory corruption (CVE-2011-2914). |
| 52 |
* The "CSoundFile::ReadAMS2()" function in load_ams.cpp contains an |
| 53 |
off-by-one error which could cause memory corruption (CVE-2011-2915). |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
Impact |
| 56 |
====== |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted media |
| 59 |
file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code, or a Denial of |
| 60 |
Service condition. |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
Workaround |
| 63 |
========== |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
Resolution |
| 68 |
========== |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
All ModPlug users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
# emerge --sync |
| 73 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libmodplug-0.8.8.4" |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are |
| 76 |
available since August 27, 2011. It is likely that your system is |
| 77 |
already no longer affected by this issue. |
