Synopsis
========

Multiple heap and buffer overflows exist in AdPlug.

Background
==========

AdPlug is a free, cross-platform, and hardware-independent AdLib sound
player library.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package            /  Vulnerable  /                    Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  media-libs/adplug       < 2.0.1                          >= 2.0.1

Description
===========

AdPlug is vulnerable to buffer and heap overflows when processing the
following types of files: CFF, MTK, DMO, U6M, DTM, and S3M.

Impact
======

By enticing a user to load a specially crafted file, an attacker could
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running AdPlug.

Workaround
==========

There are no known workarounds at this time.

Resolution
==========

All AdPlug users should update to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/adplug-2.0.1"
