xine-lib to crash, creating a denial of service. This issue only applied to
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, 7.10, and 8.04 LTS. (CVE-2008-3231)

It was discovered that the MNG, MOD, and Real demuxers in xine-lib did not
correctly handle memory allocation failures. If a user or automated system were

could crash xine-lib or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of

It was discovered that the QT demuxer in xine-lib did not correctly handle
an invalid metadata atom size, resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow. If a
user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted MOV file,
an attacker could execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the program.

It was discovered that the input handlers in xine-lib did not correctly handle

crafted file, stream, or URL, an attacker could execute arbitrary code as the

It was discovered that the Matroska and Real demuxers in xine-lib did not
