segmentation fault in mencoder

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]<

 



I have encountered with a bug in mencoder. This is how it may be 
reproduced (i used mencoder built from sources checked out from 
subversion repository).

expl.c (attached) - pseudo streaming server. It accepts the connection 
and then sends exploit data into it. So compile it and run. Then run 
mencoder with options "-o out.avi http://127.0.0.1:8050"; to see the 
crash. This is how all the reproducing steps look:

user at machine:/space/iisaev/avalanche2/mplayer/inst/bin$ gcc -Wall expl.c 
-o expl
user at machine:/space/iisaev/avalanche2/mplayer/inst/bin$ ./expl &
[1] 30104
user at machine:/space/iisaev/avalanche2/mplayer/inst/bin$ gdb --args 
./mencoder -o out.avi http://127.0.0.1:8050

$1 = 0x0

One can see that null pointer dereference occurs at stream/http.c:796 as 
http_hdr->protocol is equal to null.

I hope this letter will help to fix it.

Thanks,
