Mandriva Linux Advisory MDVA-2008:148

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : pulseaudio

Date : October 17, 2008

Affected: 2009.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

Some issues relating to thread cancellation have been discovered in

the pulseaudio package shipped with Mandriva Linux 2009.0.

 

These issues could result in the crash of an application acting as

a pulseaudio client. This condition is greatly exacerbated when

the client is unable to connect to the pulseaudio server. Due to

the fact that libcanberra is used to play event sounds in GTK apps,

this problem could present itself when running GTK applications as

root which, under some circumstances, was unable to connect to the

user's pulseaudio daemon.

 

The problems were traced to the use of libasycns in pulseaudio and

this updated package is compiled without support for this library

(it is not essential to pulseaudio operation).

 

In addition, the version of pulseaudio shipped in Mandriva Linux

2009.0 used wallclock time to determine when a misbehaving daemon

was overloading the CPU (under which circumstances the daemon

terminated). This can cause problems when the time is changed manually

or when daylight savings kick in. This package also contains an

upstream fix to use monotonic time which does not suffer from this

limitation.
