Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

Buffer overflow in url.c in MPlayer 1.0rc2 and SVN before r25823 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted URL that prevents the IPv6 parsing code from setting a pointer to NULL, which causes the buffer to be reused by the unescape code.
