CVE-2008-1110
CWE-119Published: February 29, 2008· Updated: Jun 16, 2026
Official Description
Buffer overflow in demuxers/demux_asf.c (aka the ASF demuxer) in the xineplug_dmx_asf.so plugin in xine-lib before 1.1.10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted ASF header. NOTE: this issue leads to a crash when an attack uses the CVE-2006-1664 exploit code, but it is different from CVE-2006-1664.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2008-1110 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2008-1110. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
From a weakness classification perspective (CWE-119): Buffer overflow vulnerabilities can lead to arbitrary code execution or denial of service by corrupting adjacent memory.
