SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/26232/

Moderately critical

>From remote

SOFTWARE:

DESCRIPTION:
David Thiel has reported some vulnerabilities in libvorbis, which can
be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service)
and potentially compromise an application using the library.

1) A boundary error exists in the way the "_01inverse()" function in
res.c processes "blocksize_0" and "blocksize_1" values, which can be
exploited to cause a heap overwrite.

2) A boundary error exists in the way the "vorbis_info_clear()"
function in info.c processes invalid mapping types, which can be
exploited to trigger a call to a value outside the dispatch table.

3) Invalid "blocksize" values passed to the "vorbis_dsp_clear()"
function in block.c result in an invalid memory access, which can be
exploited to cause a DoS.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.1.2. Prior versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.2.0.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Discovered by David Thiel, iSEC Partners.
