tag_insight = "Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in xine-lib, a library
which supplies most of the application functionality of the xine
multimedia player.  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following three problems:

CVE-2008-1482

Integer overflow vulnerabilities exist in xine's FLV, QuickTime,
RealMedia, MVE and CAK demuxers, as well as the EBML parser used
by the Matroska demuxer.  These weaknesses allow an attacker to
overflow heap buffers and potentially execute arbitrary code by
supplying a maliciously crafted file of those types.

CVE-2008-1686

Insufficient input validation in the Speex implementation used
by this version of xine enables an invalid array access and the
execution of arbitrary code by supplying a maliciously crafted
Speex file.

CVE-2008-1878

Inadequate bounds checking in the NES Sound Format (NSF) demuxer
enables a stack buffer overflow and the execution of arbitrary
code through a maliciously crafted NSF file.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.1.2+dfsg-7.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.1.12-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your xine-lib packages.";
