Description

Buffer overflow in demuxers/demux_asf.c (aka the ASF demuxer) in the xineplug_dmx_asf.so plugin in xine-lib before 1.1.10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted ASF header. NOTE: this issue leads to a crash when an attack uses the CVE-2006-1664 exploit code, but it is different from CVE-2006-1664.
