	[xfocus-SD-060329]MPlayer: Multiple integer overflows

  MPlayer is a media player capable of handling multiple multimedia file
formats.

  XFOCUS team (http://www.xfocus.org/) had  discovered
Multiple integer overflows .Those can lead to a heap-based buffer
overflow. This could result in the execution of arbitrary code with the
permissions of the user running MPlayer.


Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /    Vulnerable    /              Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
   media-video/mplayer     <= 1.0.20060329

Description
===========

[1]in libmpdemux/asfheader.c
- -----------------------------------
    218           asf_scrambling_h=buffer[0];
    219           asf_scrambling_w=(buffer[2]<<8)|buffer[1];
    220           asf_scrambling_b=(buffer[4]<<8)|buffer[3];
    221           asf_scrambling_w/=asf_scrambling_b;
char convert to int ,int value would be negative number.
this lead to  asf_descrambling() heap-based buffer overflow.


[2]in libmpdemux/aviheader.c
- -----------------------------------
    218       s->wLongsPerEntry = stream_read_word_le(demuxer->stream);
    219       s->bIndexSubType = stream_read_char(demuxer->stream);
    220       s->bIndexType = stream_read_char(demuxer->stream);
    221       s->nEntriesInUse = stream_read_dword_le(demuxer->stream);
    222       *(uint32_t *)s->dwChunkId =
stream_read_dword_le(demuxer->stream);
    223       stream_read(demuxer->stream, (char *)s->dwReserved, 3*4);
    224       memset(s->dwReserved, 0, 3*4);
    225
    226       print_avisuperindex_chunk(s,MSGL_V);
    227
    228       msize = sizeof (uint32_t) * s->wLongsPerEntry *
s->nEntriesInUse;[ERROR]
    229       s->aIndex = malloc(msize);
    230       memset (s->aIndex, 0, msize);
    231       s->stdidx = malloc (s->nEntriesInUse * sizeof
(avistdindex_chunk));[ERROR]
    232       memset (s->stdidx, 0, s->nEntriesInUse * sizeof
(avistdindex_chunk));
    233
    234       // now the real index of indices
    235       for (i=0; i<s->nEntriesInUse; i++) {
    236           chunksize-=16;
    237           s->aIndex[i].qwOffset =
stream_read_dword_le(demuxer->stream) & 0xffffffff;
    238           s->aIndex[i].qwOffset |=
((uint64_t)stream_read_dword_le(demuxer->stream) & 0xffffffff)<<32;
    239           s->aIndex[i].dwSize =
stream_read_dword_le(demuxer->stream);
    240           s->aIndex[i].dwDuration =
stream_read_dword_le(demuxer->stream);
    241           mp_msg (MSGT_HEADER, MSGL_V, "ODML (%.4s): [%d]
0x%016"PRIx64" 0x%04x %u\n",
    242                   (s->dwChunkId), i,
    243                   (uint64_t)s->aIndex[i].qwOffset,
s->aIndex[i].dwSize, s->aIndex[i].dwDuration);
    244       }

[ERROR] two integer overflows lead to a heap-based buffer overflow.
NOTE: aviheader.c have another potential integer overflows.


ABOUT XCON (Ad Time ;) )
