+ <description>
+ <p>
+ A possible buffer overflow has been reported in the Real Media input
+ plugin.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by enticing a user into
+ loading a specially crafted stream with xine or an application using
+ xine-lib. This can lead to a Denial of Service and possibly the
+ execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the
+ application.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All xine-lib users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.2-r3&quot;</code>
