VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/21196/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
libmikmod 3.x
http://secunia.com/product/11132/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported a vulnerability in libmikmod, which
potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
"loadChunk()" function in loaders/load_gt2.cs. This can be exploited
to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted GT2
file.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 3.2.2. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted GT2 files.
