======================
Vulnerability Details:
======================
MPlayer contains a stack buffer overflow vulnerability while parsing
malformed TwinVQ media files. The vulnerability may be exploited by a
(remote) attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of MPlayer.
==================
Technical Details:
==================
Source code file: libmpdemux\demux_vqf.c
[...]
24 static demuxer_t* demux_open_vqf(demuxer_t* demuxer) {
...
49 char chunk_id[4];
50 unsigned chunk_size;
51 [1] hi->size=chunk_size=stream_read_dword(s); /* include itself */
52 stream_read(s,chunk_id,4);
53 if(*((uint32_t *)&chunk_id[0])==mmioFOURCC('C','O','M',
'M'))
54 {
55 [2] char buf[chunk_size-8];
56 unsigned i,subchunk_size;
57 [3] if(stream_read(s,buf,chunk_size-8)!=chunk_size-8) return NULL;
...
86 i+=subchunk_size+4;
87 while(i<chunk_size-8)
88 {
89 unsigned slen,sid;
90 [4] char sdata[chunk_size];
91 sid=*((uint32_t *)&buf[i]); i+=4;
92 [5] slen=be2me_32(*((uint32_t *)&buf[i])); i+=4;
93 if(sid==mmioFOURCC('D','S','I',
'Z'))
94 {
95 hi->Dsiz=be2me_32(*((uint32_t *)&buf[i]));
96 continue; /* describes the same info as size of DATA chunk */
97 }
98 [6] memcpy(sdata,&buf[i],slen); sdata[slen]=0; i+=slen;
[...]
[1] The unsigned int variable "chunk_size" is filled with a user controlled
value from the media file.
[2] The value of "chunk_size" is used to calculate the length of the stack
buffer "buf".
[3] "buf" is filled with user controlled data from the media file.
[4] The value of "chunk_size" is again used as a length specifier for
another stack buffer called "sdata".
[5] The unsigned int variable "slen" is filled with a user controlled value
from the media file.
[6] This memcpy() function copies "slen" bytes of user controlled data from
"buf" into the stack buffer "sdata". As "slen", the source data as well
as the size of the destination buffer "sdata" are user controlled this
leads to an exploitable stack buffer overflow vulnerability.
=========
Solution:
=========
Upgrade to MPlayer 1.0rc2 >= r28150 (see [1]) or MPlayer SVN trunk
>= r28149 (see [2]).
