The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the "readAA()" function in read_aa.cpp. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a user into opening a specially crafted Audible.com (*.aa) file. Successful exploitation may allow the execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is reported in version 2.00p19. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Fixed in the CVS repository. http://mlipod.cvs.sourceforge.net/mlipod/ml_ipod/read_aa.cpp?r1=1.3.6.1&r2=1.3.6.2 PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: Luigi Auriemma ORIGINAL ADVISORY: http://aluigi.altervista.org/adv/mlipodbof-adv.txt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- About: This Advisory was delivered by Secunia as a free service to help everybody keeping their systems up to date against the latest vulnerabilities.
