Debian Security Advisory DSA-2159-1 [email protected]
http://www.debian.org/security/ Moritz Muehlenhoff
February 10, 2011 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
Package : vlc
Vulnerability : missing input sanitising
Problem type : (local)remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2011-0531
Dan Rosenberg discovered that insufficient input validation in VLC's
processing of Matroska/WebM containers could lead to the execution of
arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.1.3-1squeeze3.
The version of vlc in the oldstable distribution (lenny) is affected
by further issues and will be addressed in a followup DSA.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.1.7-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your vlc packages.
