Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1148-1
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
– Ubuntu 11.04
– Ubuntu 10.10
– Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
Summary:
libmodplug could be made to run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file.
Software Description:
– libmodplug: Library for mod music based on ModPlug
Details:
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)
The default compiler options for affected releases should reduce the vulnerability to a denial of service.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:
Ubuntu 11.04:
libmodplug1 1:0.8.8.1-2ubuntu0.2
Ubuntu 10.10:
libmodplug1 1:0.8.8.1-1ubuntu1.2
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libmodplug0c2 1:0.8.7-1ubuntu0.2
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
