Description Joseph S. Atkinson 2008-12-02 01:40:00 UTC
This is an attempt to document CVE-2008-5276 for multimedia/vlc-devel in which a specially crafted Real Media (.rm) file can potentially be used to create a heap overflow.

This is my first attempt at a vulnxml entry, so be gentle. Constructive criticism welcomed.

Fix: Patch attached with submission follows:
