---------------
mplayer (2:1.0~rc2-0ubuntu13.1) hardy-security; urgency=low

  * SECURITY UPDATE: Multiple integer underflows in MPlayer 1.0_rc2 and
    earlier allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (process termination) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a
    crafted video file that causes the stream_read function to read or
    write arbitrary memory. (LP: #279030)
    - libmpdemux/demux_real.c - patch from oCert.
