TITLE:
xine-lib "sdpplin_parse()" Array Indexing Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28694

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28694/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
xine-lib 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/3410/

DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in xine-lib, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
"sdpplin_parse()" function in input/libreal/sdpplin.c. This can be
exploited to overwrite arbitrary memory regions via an overly large
"streamid" SDP parameter included in a malicious RTSP stream.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.1.10.1. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted RTSP streams.

A patch or updated version should be available shortly.
