Synopsis:	Moderate: libvpx security update
Issue date:	2010-12-20
CVE Names:	CVE-2010-4203

An integer overflow flaw, leading to arbitrary memory writes, was found 
in libvpx. An attacker could create a specially-crafted video encoded 
using the VP8 codec that, when played by a victim with an application 
using libvpx (such as Totem), would cause the application to crash or,
potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2010-4203)

After installing the update, all applications using libvpx must be 
restarted for the changes to take effect.
