Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2012-023 - A vulnerability has been found and corrected in libvpx. VP8 Codec SDK before 1.0.0 Duclair allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service unspecified corrupt input or by starting decoding from a P-frame, which triggers an out-of-bounds read, related to the clamping of motion vectors in SPLITMV blocks. The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue. This is a symbolic advisory correction because there was a clash with MDVSA-2012:023 that addressed libxml2.
