Descriptions

xine-lib 1.1.12, and other 1.1.15 and earlier versions, does not properly handle (a) negative and (b) zero values during unspecified read function calls in input_file.c, input_net.c, input_smb.c, and input_http.c, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors such as (1) a file or (2) an HTTP response, which triggers consequences such as out-of-bounds reads and heap-based buffer overflows.

xine-lib v1.1.12 y otra v1.1.15 y versiones anteriores; no maneja adecuadamente los valores (a) negative y (b) zero durante las llamadas no especificadas a la función read en file.c, input_net.c, input_smb.c e input_http.c. Esto permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) o puede que ejecutar código de su elección a través de vectores como (1) un fichero o (2) una respuesta HTTP, esto provoca consecuencias como lecturas fuera de rango y desbordamientos de búfer basados en pila.
