    and video formats.

  <description>
    <p>
    k`sOSe reported an integer overflow vulnerability in the
    sdpplin_parse() function in the file stream/realrtsp/sdpplin.c, which
    can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary memory regions via an overly
    large "StreamCount" SDP parameter.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted media
    file, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
    privileges of the user running MPlayer.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All MPlayer users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-video/mplayer-1.0_rc2_p26753&quot;</code>
