CVE-2008-1878 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Stack-based buffer overflow in the demux_nsf_send_chunk function in src/demuxers/demux_nsf.c in xine-lib 1.1.12 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long NSF title.. EPSS estimates a 15.04% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
