The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200405-24 (MPlayer, xine-lib: vulnerabilities in RTSP stream handling)
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found and fixed in the RTSP handling code common to recent versions of these two packages. These vulnerabilities include several remotely exploitable buffer overflows.
Impact :
A remote attacker, posing as a RTSP stream server, can execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user of the software playing the stream (MPlayer or any player using xine-lib). Another attacker may entice a user to use a maliciously crafted URL or playlist to achieve the same results.
Workaround :
For MPlayer, there is no known workaround at this time. For xine-lib, you can delete the xineplug_inp_rtsp.so file.
