The real_parse_headers function in demux_real.c in xine-lib 1.1.12, and other 1.1.15 and earlier versions, relies on an untrusted input length value to "reindex into an allocated buffer," which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted value, probably an array index error.

Title: xine-lib vulnerabilities
Summary: xine-lib vulnerabilities
It was discovered that xine-lib did not correctly handle certain malformed
Ogg and Windows Media files. If a user or automated system were tricked into
opening a specially crafted Ogg or Windows Media file, an attacker could cause
xine-lib to crash, creating a denial of service. This issue only applied to
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, 7.10, and 8.04 LTS. (CVE-2008-3231)
It was discovered that the MNG, MOD, and Real demuxers in xine-lib did not
correctly handle memory allocation failures. If a user or automated system were
tricked into opening a specially crafted MNG, MOD, or Real file, an attacker
could crash xine-lib or possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the user invoking the program. This issue only applied to Ub
