A Xine security update has been released for Ubuntu Linux

==========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-42-1 December 20, 2004
xine-lib vulnerabilities
https://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?group_id=9655&release_id=290099
==========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

The following packages are affected:

libxine1

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 1-rc5-1ubuntu2.1. In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.



Details follow:

Several buffer overflows have been discovered in xine-lib, the video/audio codec library for Xine frontends (xine-ui, totem-xine, kaffeine, and others). If an attacker tricked a user into loading a malicious RTSP stream or a stream with specially crafted AIFF audio or PNM image data, they could exploit this to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user opening the audio/video file.
