Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: mplayer

Multiple integer overflows in MPlayer 1.0pre7try2 allow remote attackers
to cause a denial of service and trigger heap-based buffer overflows via
(1) a certain ASF file handled by asfheader.c that causes the
asf_descrambling function to be passed a negative integer after the
conversion from a char to an int or (2) an AVI file with a crafted
wLongsPerEntry or nEntriesInUse value in the indx chunk, which is
handled in aviheader.c.

I finally located a patch at http://cvs.mandriva.com/cgi-
bin/viewvc.cgi/SPECS/mplayer/mplayer-1.0pre7-CVE-2006-1502.patch?revision=1.1.2.1&view=markup&pathrev=r1_0-1_pre7_12_3_20060mdk.
