"MPlayer is a movie player for LINUX (runs on many other Unices, and
non-x86 CPUs, see the documentation). It plays most MPEG, VOB, AVI,
OGG/OGM, VIVO, ASF/WMA/WMV, QT/MOV/MP4, FLI, RM, NuppelVideo, YUV4MPEG,
FILM, RoQ, PVA files, supported by many native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL
codecs. You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, DivX 3/4/5 and even WMV
movies, too."

<description>
<p>
A vulnerability exists in the MPlayer HTTP parser which may allow an
attacker to craft a special HTTP header ("Location:") which will trick
MPlayer into executing arbitrary code on the user's computer.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="high">
<p>
An attacker without privileges may exploit this vulnerability remotely,
allowing arbitrary code to be executed in order to gain unauthorized
access.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
A workaround is not currently known for this issue. All users are
advised to upgrade to the latest version of the affected package.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
MPlayer may be upgraded as follows:
</p>
<p>
x86 and SPARC users should:
</p>
<code>
# emerge sync
# emerge -pv ">=media-video/mplayer-0.92-r1"
# emerge ">=media-video/mplayer-0.92-r1"</code>
<p>
AMD64 users should:
</p>
<code>
# emerge sync
# emerge -pv ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre2-r1"
# emerge ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre2-r1"</code>
<p>
PPC users should:
</p>
<code>
# emerge sync
# emerge -pv ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre3-r2"
# emerge ">=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre3-r2"</code>
</resolution>
