Background ========== Grip is a GTK+ based audio CD player/ripper. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-sound/grip < 3.3.0 >= 3.3.0 Description =========== Joseph VanAndel has discovered a buffer overflow in Grip when processing large CDDB results. Impact ====== A malicious CDDB server could cause Grip to crash by returning more then 16 matches, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. Workaround ========== Disable automatic CDDB queries, but we highly encourage users to upgrade to 3.3.0. Resolution ========== All Grip users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/grip-3.3.0" References ========== [ 1 ] CAN-2005-0706 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-0706 [ 2 ] Original Bug Report http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=3714&atid=103714&func=detail&aid=834724 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200503-21.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
