Title: xine-lib OGG Processing Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

The 'xine' application is a media player; 'xine-lib' is the core library for applications that use xine.

The 'xine-lib' library is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability that occurs when processing specially crafted OGG media files. An attacker can exploit this issue to crash the affected application, denying service to legitimate users.

Very little information is currently known regarding this issue. We will update this BID when more details emerge.

Versions prior to 'xine-lib' 1.1.15 are affected.
