========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-3135-1 November 22, 2016 gst-plugins-good0.10, gst-plugins-good1.0 vulnerability ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 16.10 - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: GStreamer could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file. Software Description: - gst-plugins-good1.0: GStreamer plugins - gst-plugins-good0.10: GStreamer plugins Details: Chris Evans discovered that GStreamer Good Plugins did not correctly handle malformed FLC movie files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted FLC movie file with a GStreamer application, an attacker could cause a denial of service via application crash, or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 16.10: gstreamer1.0-plugins-good 1.8.3-1ubuntu1.1 Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: gstreamer1.0-plugins-good 1.8.2-1ubuntu0.2 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: gstreamer0.10-plugins-good 0.10.31-3+nmu1ubuntu5.1 gstreamer1.0-plugins-good 1.2.4-1~ubuntu1.1 Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: gstreamer0.10-plugins-good 0.10.31-1ubuntu1.3 In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
