Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the code used to handle (1) MMS over TCP (MMST) streams or (2) RealMedia RTSP streams in xine-lib before 1.0, and other products that use xine-lib such as MPlayer 1.0pre6 and earlier, allow remote malicious servers to execute arbitrary code.

Format string vulnerability in gxine 0.4.1 through 0.4.4, and other versions down to 0.3, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a ram file with a URL whose hostname contains format string specifiers.

Format string vulnerability in input_cdda.c in xine-lib 1-beta through 1-beta 3, 1-rc, 1.0 through 1.0.2, and 1.1.1 allows remote servers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in metadata in CDDB server responses when the victim plays a CD.

Buffer overflow in xine_list_delete_current in libxine 1.14 and earlier, as distributed in xine-lib 1.1.1 and earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted MPEG stream.

Multiple format string vulnerabilities in xiTK (xitk/main.c) in xine 0.99.3 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a long filename on an EXTINFO line in a playlist file.

Stack-based buffer overflow in libmms, as used by (a) MiMMS 0.0.9 and (b) xine-lib 1.1.0 and earlier, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via the (1) send_command, (2) string_utf16, (3) get_data, and (4) get_media_packet functions, and possibly other functions.

Multiple format string vulnerabilities in xiTK (xitk/main.c) in xine 0.99.4 might allow attackers to cause a denial of service via format string specifiers in an MP3 filename specified on the command line. NOTE: this is a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-1905. In addition, if the only attack vectors involve a user-assisted, local command line argument of a non-setuid program, this issue might not be a vulnerability.

Buffer overflow in the HTTP Plugin (xineplug_inp_http.so) for xine-lib 1.1.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long reply from an HTTP server, as demonstrated using gxine 0.5.6.

Buffer overflow in ffmpeg for xine-lib before 1.1.2 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted AVI file and "bad indexes", a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-4048 and CVE-2006-2802.

xine allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a bug report email that is generated by the (1) xine-bugreport or (2) xine-check scripts.
