libmodplug: two code execution vulnerabilities

Package(s):libmodplug CVE #(s):CVE-2013-4233 CVE-2013-4234
Created:September 5, 2013 Updated:September 16, 2013
Description:

From the Red Hat bugzilla entry:

It was reported [1],[2] that libmodplug suffers from two flaws when parsing ABC files:

1) An error within the "abc_MIDI_drum()" function (src/load_abc.cpp) can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted ABC file.

2) An integer overflow within the "abc_set_parts()" function (src/load_abc.cpp) can be exploited to corrupt heap memory via a specially crafted ABC file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.
