Two security-related issues were fixed in libebml, a library for accessing the
EBML format:

  • CVE-2015-8790
    The EbmlUnicodeString::UpdateFromUTF8 function in libEBML before 1.3.3
    allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from
    process heap memory via a crafted UTF-8 string, which triggers an invalid
    memory access.
  • CVE-2015-8791
    The EbmlElement::ReadCodedSizeValue function in libEBML before 1.3.3 allows
    context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information from process
    heap memory via a crafted length value in an EBML id, which triggers an
    invalid memory access.

For Debian 6 squeeze, these issues have been fixed in libebml version
0.7.7-3.1+deb6u1. We recommend you to upgrade your libebml packages.
