Package: flac123 Version: 0.0.9-5 Severity: grave Tags: security patch -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
CVE-2007-3507 [0]: "Stack-based buffer overflow in the local__vcentry_parse_value function in vorbiscomment.c in flac123 (aka flac-tools or flac) before 0.0.10 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large comment value_length." This vulnerability introduces a security hole allowing access to the accounts of users who use the package. The original advisory is available [1], but this has been fixed upstream as the only change in 0.0.10. I've attached a drop-in dpatch I created from the diff between 0.0.9 and 0.0.10; the patch applies and the package builds fine, but I have not done further testing. Please mention the CVE in your changelog.
