Check for the version of the libxine package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host has an old version of libxine installed. libxine is a set of libraries for the Xine multimedia player. There is a buffer overflow condition in the remote version of this library which may permit a possible hacker to execute arbitrary code on the remote host when a libxine-enabled application processes a malformed vcd:// input source indentifier. To exploit this flaw, a possible hacker would need to send a malicious playlist file to a Xine user on the remote host, containing a malformed vcd:// link.
