Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.56616
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:068 (mplayer)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to mplayer
announced via advisory MDKSA-2006:068.

Multiple integer overflows in MPlayer 1.0pre7try2 allow remote
attackers to cause a denial of service and trigger heap-based buffer
overflows via (1) a certain ASF file handled by asfheader.c that causes
the asf_descrambling function to be passed a negative integer after the
conversion from a char to an int or (2) an AVI file with a crafted
wLongsPerEntry or nEntriesInUse value in the indx chunk, which is
handled in aviheader.c.

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this problem.

Affected: 2006.0, Corporate 3.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
