+ <background>
+ <p>
+ ModPlug is a library for playing MOD-like music.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Two vulnerabilities have been reported in ModPlug:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>
+ dummy reported an integer overflow in the CSoundFile::ReadMed()
+ function when processing a MED file with a crafted song comment or song
+ name, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-1438).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ Manfred Tremmel and Stanislav Brabec reported a buffer overflow in the
+ PATinst() function when processing a long instrument name
+ (CVE-2009-1513).
+ </li>
+ </ul> <p>
+ The GStreamer Bad plug-ins (gst-plugins-bad) before 0.10.11 built a
+ vulnerable copy of ModPlug.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user to read specially crafted files,
+ possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the user running the application.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All ModPlug users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/libmodplug-0.8.7&quot;</code>
+ <p>
+ gst-plugins-bad 0.10.11 and later versions do not include the ModPlug
+ plug-in (it has been moved to media-plugins/gst-plugins-modplug). All
+ gst-plugins-bad users should upgrade to the latest version and install
+ media-plugins/gst-plugins-modplug:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/gst-plugins-bad-0.10.11&quot;
+ # emerge --ask --verbose &quot;media-plugins/gst-plugins-modplug&quot;</code>
