Synopsis:	Important: libvorbis security update
Issue date:	2009-08-18
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-2663

CVE-2009-2663 libvorbis: Improper codec headers processing (DoS, ACE)

An insufficient input validation flaw was found in the way libvorbis
processes the codec file headers (static mode headers and encoding 
books) of the Ogg Vorbis audio file format (Ogg). A remote attacker 
could provide a specially-crafted Ogg file that would cause a denial of 
service (memory corruption and application crash) or, potentially, 
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of an application using the 
libvorbis library when opened by a victim. (CVE-2009-2663)

The desktop must be restarted (log out, then log back in) for this 
update to take effect.
