"Luigi Auriemma, Alin Rad Pop, Remi Denis-Courmont, Quovodis, Guido
Landi, Felipe Manzano, Anibal Sacco and others discovered multiple
vulnerabilities in vlc, an application for playback and streaming of
audio and video. In the worst case, these weaknesses permit a remote,
unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges
of the user running vlc.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following eight problems :

  - CVE-2007-6681
    A buffer overflow vulnerability in subtitle handling
    allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code through the
    opening of a maliciously crafted MicroDVD, SSA or
    Vplayer file.

  - CVE-2007-6682
    A format string vulnerability in the HTTP-based remote
    control facility of the vlc application allows a remote,
    unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.

  - CVE-2007-6683
    Insecure argument validation allows a remote attacker to
    overwrite arbitrary files writable by the user running
    vlc, if a maliciously crafted M3U playlist or MP3 audio
    file is opened.

  - CVE-2008-0295, CVE-2008-0296
    Heap buffer overflows in RTSP stream and session
    description protocol (SDP) handling allow an attacker to
    execute arbitrary code if a maliciously crafted RTSP
    stream is played.

  - CVE-2008-0073
    Insufficient integer bounds checking in SDP handling
    allows the execution of arbitrary code through a
    maliciously crafted SDP stream ID parameter in an RTSP
    stream.

  - CVE-2008-0984
    Insufficient integrity checking in the MP4 demuxer
    allows a remote attacker to overwrite arbitrary memory
    and execute arbitrary code if a maliciously crafted MP4
    file is opened.

  - CVE-2008-1489
    An integer overflow vulnerability in MP4 handling allows
    a remote attacker to cause a heap buffer overflow,
    inducing a crash and possibly the execution of arbitrary
    code if a maliciously crafted MP4 file is opened."
