Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57040
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-295-1 (xine-lib)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to xine-lib
announced via advisory USN-295-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.04
Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

Federico L. Bossi Bonin discovered a buffer overflow in the HTTP input
module. By tricking an user into opening a malicious remote media
location, a remote attacker could exploit this to crash Xine library
frontends (like totem-xine, gxine, or xine-ui) and possibly even
execute arbitrary code with the user's privileges.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.04:
libxine1 1.0-1ubuntu3.7

Ubuntu 5.10:
libxine1c2 1.0.1-1ubuntu10.3

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
libxine-main1 1.1.1+ubuntu2-7.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to
effect the necessary changes.
