Summary
Multiple integer overflows in (1) the new_demux_packet function in demuxer.h and (2) the demux_asf_read_packet function in demux_asf.c in MPlayer 1.0pre7try2 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an ASF file with a large packet length value. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; portions of the details are obtained from third party information.

NASL family FreeBSD Local Security Checks NASL id FREEBSD_PKG_104BEB63AF4D11DA84140013D4A4A40E.NASL description The Mplayer team reports : A potential buffer overflow was found in the ASF demuxer. Arbitrary remote code execution is possible (under the user ID running the player) when streaming an ASF file from a malicious server or local code execution (under the user ID running the player) if a malicious ASF file is played locally. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 21387 published 2006-05-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2006-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/21387 title FreeBSD : mplayer -- heap overflow in the ASF demuxer (104beb63-af4d-11da-8414-0013d4a4a40e) NASL family Gentoo Local Security Checks NASL id GENTOO_GLSA-200603-03.NASL description The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200603-03 (MPlayer: Multiple integer overflows) MPlayer makes use of the FFmpeg library, which is vulnerable to a heap overflow in the avcodec_default_get_buffer() function discovered by Simon Kilvington (see GLSA 200601-06). Furthermore, AFI Security Research discovered two integer overflows in ASF file format decoding, in the new_demux_packet() function from libmpdemux/demuxer.h and the demux_asf_read_packet() function from libmpdemux/demux_asf.c. Impact : An attacker could craft a malicious media file which, when opened using MPlayer, would lead to a heap-based buffer overflow. This could result in the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running MPlayer. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 21001 published 2006-03-06 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2006-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/21001 title GLSA-200603-03 : MPlayer: Multiple integer overflows
