CVE-2004-1187
Heap-based buffer overflow in the pnm_get_chunk function for xine 0.99.2, and other packages such as MPlayer that use the same code, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long PNA_TAG values, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-1188.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.18%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
