Title: VLC vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in VLC.
It was discovered that VLC incorrectly handled certain media files. If a
user were tricked into opening a specially-crafted file, a remote attacker
could use this issue to cause VLC to crash, resulting in a denial of
service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
Instructions: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
