CVE-2008-1161
Buffer overflow in the Matroska demuxer (demuxers/demux_matroska.c) in xine-lib before 1.1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a Matroska file with invalid frame sizes.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (6.91%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
