  <background>
    <p>TagLib is a library for reading and editing audio meta data.</p>
  </background>
  <description>
    <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in TagLib:</p>
    
    <ul>
      <li>The "analyzeCurrent()" function in ape/apeproperties.cpp contains a
        division by zero error (CVE-2012-1107).
      </li>
      <li>The "parse()" function in inogg/xiphcomment.cpp contains an error
        when processing the "vendorLength" field (CVE-2012-1108).
      </li>
      <li>The "mid()" function in toolkit/tbytevector.cpp contains an integer
        overflow error (CVE-2012-1584).
      </li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to open a
      specially crafted OGG file with an application using TagLib, possibly
      resulting in a Denial of Service condition.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All TagLib users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/taglib-1.7.1"
    </code>
    
    <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
      such as  revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying  some of these
      packages.
    </p>
