Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in libmodplug, a library for mod music based on ModPlug, that might allow arbitrary code execution when processing specially-crafted ABC files through applications using the library, such as media players.

For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed in version 1:0.8.8.1-1+squeeze2+git20130828. For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 1:0.8.8.4-3+deb7u1+git20130828. For the testing distribution (jessie), these problems will be fixed soon. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1:0.8.8.4-4. We recommend that you upgrade your libmodplug packages.

libmodplug is a library based on the mod rendering code from ModPlug, a popular Windows mod player.
