Synopsis

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

Description

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201203-16 (ModPlug: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in ModPlug: The ReadS3M method in load_s3m.cpp fails to validate user-supplied information, which could cause a stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-1574). The 'CSoundFile::ReadWav()' function in load_wav.cpp contains an integer overflow which could cause a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-2911). The 'CSoundFile::ReadS3M()' function in load_s3m.cpp contains multiple boundary errors which could cause a stack-based buffer overflow (CVE-2011-2912). The 'CSoundFile::ReadAMS()' function in load_ams.cpp contains an off-by-one error which could cause memory corruption (CVE-2011-2913). The 'CSoundFile::ReadDSM()' function in load_dms.cpp contains an off-by-one error which could cause memory corruption (CVE-2011-2914). The 'CSoundFile::ReadAMS2()' function in load_ams.cpp contains an off-by-one error which could cause memory corruption (CVE-2011-2915). Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted media file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code, or a Denial of Service condition. Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.

Solution

All ModPlug users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose '>=media-libs/libmodplug-0.8.8.4' NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are available since August 27, 2011. It is likely that your system is already no longer affected by this issue.

Public Exploits

Target Network Port(s): N/A
Target Asset(s): N/A
Exploit Available: True (Metasploit Framework, Exploit-DB, Immunity Canvas, Core Impact)
Exploit Ease: Exploits are available

Here's the list of publicly known exploits and PoCs for verifying the GLSA-201203-16 : ModPlug: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code vulnerability:

Metasploit: exploit/windows/fileformat/vlc_modplug_s3m
[VideoLAN VLC ModPlug ReadS3M Stack Buffer Overflow]
Exploit-DB: exploits/windows/remote/17252.rb
