<p>
mpg123 is a real time audio player designed for the MPEG format.

<description>
<p>
In httpdget.c, a variable is assigned to the heap, and is supposed to
receive a smaller allocation. As this variable was not terminated
properly, strncpy() will overwrite the data assigned next in memory.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
By enticing a user to visit a malicious URL, an attacker could possibly
execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running mpg123.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All mpg123 users should update to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/mpg123-0.59s-r11"</code>
