Summary

FFmpeg before 0.5.4, as used in MPlayer and other products, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed WMV file.

Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)

  • Buffer Overflow via Environment Variables
    This attack pattern involves causing a buffer overflow through manipulation of environment variables. Once the attacker finds that they can modify an environment variable, they may try to overflow associated buffers. This attack leverages implicit trust often placed in environment variables.
  • Overflow Buffers
    Buffer Overflow attacks target improper or missing bounds checking on buffer operations, typically triggered by input injected by an attacker. As a consequence, an attacker is able to write past the boundaries of allocated buffer regions in memory, causing a program crash or potentially redirection of execution as per the attackers' choice.
  • Client-side Injection-induced Buffer Overflow
    This type of attack exploits a buffer overflow vulnerability in targeted client software through injection of malicious content from a custom-built hostile service.
  • Filter Failure through Buffer Overflow
    In this attack, the idea is to cause an active filter to fail by causing an oversized transaction. An attacker may try to feed overly long input strings to the program in an attempt to overwhelm the filter (by causing a buffer overflow) and hoping that the filter does not fail securely (i.e. the user input is let into the system unfiltered).
  • MIME Conversion
    An attacker exploits a weakness in the MIME conversion routine to cause a buffer overflow and gain control over the mail server machine. The MIME system is designed to allow various different information formats to be interpreted and sent via e-mail. Attack points exist when data are converted to MIME compatible format and back.

    descriptionMultiple vulnerabilities has been identified and fixed in ffmpeg : oggparsevorbis.c in FFmpeg 0.5 does not properly perform certain pointer arithmetic, which might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive memory contents and cause a denial of service via a crafted file that triggers an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2009-4632) vorbis_dec.c in FFmpeg 0.5 uses an assignment operator when a comparison operator was intended, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted file that modifies a loop counter and triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2009-4633) Multiple integer underflows in FFmpeg 0.5 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted file that (1) bypasses a validation check in vorbis_dec.c and triggers a wraparound of the stack pointer, or (2) access a pointer from out-of-bounds memory in mov.c, related to an elst tag that appears before a tag that creates a stream. (CVE-2009-4634) FFmpeg 0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted MOV container with improperly ordered tags that cause (1) mov.c and (2) utils.c to use inconsistent codec types and identifiers, which causes the mp3 decoder to process a pointer for a video structure, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2009-4635) FFmpeg 0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (hang) via a crafted file that triggers an infinite loop. (CVE-2009-4636) The av_rescale_rnd function in the AVI demuxer in FFmpeg 0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted AVI file that triggers a divide-by-zero error. (CVE-2009-4639) Array index error in vorbis_dec.c in FFmpeg 0.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Vorbis file that triggers an out-of-bounds read. (CVE-2009-4640) flicvideo.c in libavcodec 0.6 and earlier in FFmpeg, as used in MPlayer and other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted flic file, related to an arbitrary offset dereference vulnerability. (CVE-2010-3429) Fix memory corruption in WMV parsing (CVE-2010-3908) libavcodec/vorbis_dec.c in the Vorbis decoder in FFmpeg 0.6.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted .ogg file, related to the vorbis_floor0_decode function. (CVE-2010-4704) Multiple buffer overflows in vorbis_dec.c in the Vorbis decoder in FFmpeg, as used in Google Chrome before 8.0.552.237 and Chrome OS before 8.0.552.344, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted WebM file, related to buffers for (1) the channel floor and (2) the channel residue. (CVE-2011-0480) Fix heap corruption crashes (CVE-2011-0722) Fix invalid reads in VC-1 decoding (CVE-2011-0723) And several additional vulnerabilities originally discovered by Google Chrome developers were also fixed with this advisory. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
