CVE-2008-5246
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in xine-lib before 1.1.15 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors that send ID3 data to the (1) id3v22_interp_frame and (2) id3v24_interp_frame functions in src/demuxers/id3.c.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.69%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
