TITLE:
libmikmod Module Parsing Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37775

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37775/

DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered some vulnerabilities in libmikmod,
which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise
a vulnerable system.

1) Three boundary errors in load_it.c when parsing instrument
definitions can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows via
a specially crafted Impulse Tracker (IT) file.

2) A boundary error in load_ult.c can be exploited to cause a
heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted Ultratracker (ULT)
file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 3.1.12. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
The vulnerabilities are fixed in the CVS repository.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Dyon Balding, Secunia Research.
