Description Joseph S. Atkinson 2008-12-02 01:20:01 UTC 
Move vlc-devel to 0.9.8.

This bump addresses a vulnerability in the Real Media demuxer that can allow an attacker to create a heap overflow.

CVE-2008-5276

A proper vulnxml submission is to follow.

I'll take it.
Comment 3 Joseph S Atkinson 2008-12-03 08:33:47 UTC 
I ran into issues with vlc-devel 0.9.8 where qvlc crashes on exit. As an 
alternative to committing an unstable version at this time, I pulled the 
Real Media patches from git and rolled them up for 0.9.6. This includes 
a small tweak that came a day or so after they rolled up 0.9.8.

0.9.8 still hasn't been announced officially yet either, so I am not 
comfortable with this at the moment. The skipped 0.9.7 after a failed 
attempt to fix the Real Media issue once already. I will follow up if I 
find out something else or find a fix for the crash.

If you commit this patch under files/ instead, change the range on the 
vulnxml (ports/129356) to match our local portrevision.
Comment 4 Joseph S Atkinson 2008-12-03 21:42:21 UTC 
VideoLAN did move to 0.9.8a and the crash I mentioned seems to be a 
local phenomena.

Please test and commit this instead.

Also, note on vulnxml (ports/129356).
