TITLE:
libmusicbrainz Multiple Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA21404

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.c
om/advisories/21404/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
libmusicbrainz 2.x
http://secunia.com/
product/11416/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has reported some vulnerabilities in
libmusicbrainz,
which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS
(Denial of
Service) or potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

1) A boundary error within the MBHttp:ownload
function in
lib/http.cpp can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via
a large
"location" field in a HTTP redirection received
from a malicious
MusicBrainz server.

2) Various boundary errors within rdfparse.c can be
exploited to
cause buffer overflows via very long URLs included in a
malicious RDF
feed.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary
code.

SOLUTION:
Do not connect to untrusted MusicBrainz servers.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Luigi Auriemma
