TITLE:
AlsaPlayer Multiple Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA21422

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/21422/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
AlsaPlayer 0.x
http://secunia.com/product/11328/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported some vulnerabilities in AlsaPlayer, which
potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

1) A boundary error exists in the "reconnect()" function in
reader/http/http.c during the handling of HTTP connections. This can
be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when receiving a
specially crafted "Location" HTTP response header.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but
requires that the client connects to a malicious server.

2) A boundary error in the functions used for adding items to the
playlist can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via e.g. an
overly long URL.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but
requires that the GTK interface is used.

3) Two boundary errors exist in the "cddb_lookup()" function in
input/ccda/cdda_engine.c when performing a query to a CDDB server.
This can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows when
receiving a specially crafted CDDB response.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code when
querying a malicious CDDB server.

The vulnerabilities have been reported in version 0.99.76. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Use another product.
