Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.57073
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-309-1 (libmms)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to libmms
announced via advisory USN-309-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.10

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

Several buffer overflows were found in libmms. By tricking a user into
opening a specially crafted remote multimedia stream with an
application using libmms, a remote attacker could overwrite an
arbitrary memory portion with zeros, thereby crashing the program.

In Ubuntu 5.10, this affects the GStreamer MMS plugin
(gstreamer0.8-mms). Other Ubuntu releases do not support this library.

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

Ubuntu 5.10:
libmms0 0.1-0ubuntu1.1

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