    An integer

    in modules/demux/tta.c (CVE-2008-3732).
    A signedness error
    leading to a stack-based buffer overflow in the mms_ReceiveCommand()
    function in modules/access/mms/mmstu.c (CVE-2008-3794).
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file,

    privileges of the user running the application.
  
Workaround :
