"Updated flac packages that fix two security issues are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Important
security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base
scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each
vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

The flac packages contain a decoder and an encoder for the FLAC (Free
Lossless Audio Codec) audio file format.

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way flac decoded FLAC audio
files. An attacker could create a specially crafted FLAC audio file
that could cause an application using the flac library to crash or
execute arbitrary code when the file was read. (CVE-2014-9028)

A buffer over-read flaw was found in the way flac processed certain
ID3v2 metadata. An attacker could create a specially crafted FLAC
audio file that could cause an application using the flac library to
crash when the file was read. (CVE-2014-8962)

All flac users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain backported patches to correct these issues. After installing
the update, all applications linked against the flac library must be
restarted for this update to take effect."
