Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.10.2024.0358
Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2024-0358)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'mpg123' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0358 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'mpg123' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2024-0358 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in mpg123 when handling crafted streams. When decoding PCM, the libmpg123 may write past the end of a heap-located buffer. Consequently, heap corruption may happen, and arbitrary code execution may not be dismissed. The complexity required to exploit this flaw is considered high as the payload must be validated by the MPEG decoder and the PCM synth before execution. Additionally, to successfully execute the attack, the user must scan through the stream, making web live stream content (such as web radios) a very unlikely attack vector. (CVE-2024-10573) Affected Software/OS: 'mpg123' package(s) on Mageia 9. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.0 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:H/Au:S/C:C/I:C/A:C
