Vulnerability Information

Severity: Medium
Vulnerability Published: 2011-05-09
Patch Published: 2011-06-13
CVE [?]: CVE-2011-1574, CVE-2011-1761
CPE [?]: cpe:/o:canonical:ubuntu_linux:10.04:-:lts, cpe:/o:canonical:ubuntu_linux:10.10, cpe:/o:canonical:ubuntu_linux:11.04, p-cpe:/a:canonical:ubuntu_linux:libmodplug0c2, p-cpe:/a:canonical:ubuntu_linux:libmodplug1

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

It was discovered that libmodplug did not correctly handle certain malformed S3M media files. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted S3M file, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2011-1574)

It was discovered that libmodplug did not correctly handle certain malformed ABC media files. If a user or automated system were tricked into opening a crafted ABC file, an attacker could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code with privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2011-1761)

The default compiler options for affected releases should reduce the vulnerability to a denial of service.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected libmodplug0c2 and / or libmodplug1 packages.
