The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200803-16 (MPlayer: Multiple buffer overflows)
The following errors have been discovered in MPlayer:
Felipe Manzano and Anibal Sacco (Core Security Technologies) reported an array indexing error in the file libmpdemux/demux_mov.c when parsing MOV file headers (CVE-2008-0485).
Damian Frizza and Alfredo Ortega (Core Security Technologies) reported a boundary error in the file libmpdemux/demux_audio.c when parsing FLAC comments (CVE-2008-0486).
Adam Bozanich (Mu Security) reported boundary errors in the cddb_parse_matches_list() and cddb_query_parse() functions in the file stream_cddb.c when parsing CDDB album titles (CVE-2008-0629) and in the url_scape_string() function in the file stream/url.c when parsing URLS (CVE-2008-0630).
Impact :
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running MPlayer.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
