MPlayer is a media player that supports many multimedia file types.
Xfocus Team discovered multiple integer overflows that may lead to a heap-based buffer overflow.
An attacker could entice a user to play a specially crafted multimedia file, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All MPlayer users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0.20060415"
All MPlayer binary users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/mplayer-bin-1.0.20060415"
