The remote host is missing an update for the 'xine-lib' package(s) announced via the USN-746-1 advisory. It was discovered that the 4xm demuxer in xine-lib did not correctly handle a large current_track value in a 4xm file, resulting in an integer overflow. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a specially crafted 4xm movie file, an attacker could crash xine-lib or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program (CVE-2009-0698). USN-710-1 provided updated xine-lib packages to fix multiple security vulnerabilities. The security patch to fix CVE-2008-5239 introduced a regression causing some media files to be unplayable. This update corrects the problem

Original advisory details:
 It was discovered that the input handlers in xine-lib did not correctly
 handle certain error codes, resulting in out-of-bounds reads and heap-
 based buffer overflows. If a user or automated system were tricked into
 opening a specially crafted file, stream, or URL, an attacker could
 execute arbitrary code as the user invoking the program. (CVE-2008-5239)");
