4.3
MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
xine-lib versions 1.1.12 and earlier, including 1.1.15 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to an integer underflow in the demux qt.c file, which can be triggered by a crafted media file. This results in a denial of service, causing the program to crash. The problem occurs when a compressed MOV file contains a small value of moov atom size, leading to the underflow.
Recommendations
For xine-lib versions 1.1.12 and earlier, including 1.1.15 and earlier, update to a version that fixes the integer underflow issue in demux qt.c to prevent denial of service attacks.
