Issue date: 2009-04-06

CVE Names: CVE-2009-0586

=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated gstreamer-plugins-base packages that fix a security issue are now

available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

 

This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red

Hat Security Response Team.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64

 

3. Description:

 

GStreamer is a streaming media framework based on graphs of filters which

operate on media data. GStreamer Base Plug-ins is a collection of

well-maintained base plug-ins.

 

An integer overflow flaw which caused a heap-based buffer overflow was

discovered in the Vorbis comment tags reader. An attacker could create a

carefully-crafted Vorbis file that would cause an application using

GStreamer to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code if opened by a

victim. (CVE-2009-0586)

 

All users of gstreamer-plugins-base are advised to upgrade to these updated

packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After

installing this update, all applications using GStreamer (such as Totem or

Rhythmbox) must be restarted for the changes to take effect.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released

errata relevant to your system have been applied.
