[DSA564] DSA-564-1 mpg123 |

DSA-564-1 mpg123 Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Davide Del Vecchio discovered a vulnerability in mpg123, a popular (but non-free) MPEG layer 1/2/3 audio player. A malicious MPEG layer 2/3 file could cause the header checks in mpg123 to fail, which could in turn permit arbitrary code to be executed with the rights of the user running mpg123. For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 0.59r-13woody3. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 0.59r-16. We recommend that you upgrade your mpg123 package.
