Описание
An out-of-bounds write flaw was found in mpg123 when handling crafted streams. When decoding PCM, the libmpg123 may write past the end of a heap-located buffer. Consequently, heap corruption may happen, and arbitrary code execution is not discarded. The complexity required to exploit this flaw is considered high as the payload must be validated by the MPEG decoder and the PCM synth before execution. Additionally, to successfully execute the attack, the user must scan through the stream, making web live stream content (such as web radios) a very unlikely attack vector.
Отчет
The Red Hat Product Security team has classified this vulnerability as having a Moderate severity due to the complexity of the attack and the attack vector being generally considered as local.
Меры по смягчению последствий
This vulnerability can be mitigated by using the --no-frankenstein option to the mpg123 application.
