S-275: MPlayer Vulnerability
It was discovered that the MPlayer movie player performs insufficient input sanitising on SDP session data, elading to potential execution of arbitrary code through a malformed multimedia stream. The risk is MEDIUM. Could lead to potential execution of arbitrary code through a malformed multimedia stream.

sdpadm

sdpadm(1M)						  System Administration Commands						sdpadm(1M)

NAME

       sdpadm - SDP system configuration administration

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/sbin/sdpadm  status | enable | disable

DESCRIPTION

       The  sdpadm command is used to display the system state of the Sockets Direct Protocol (SDP) protocol. The sdpadm command can optionally be
       used to set the state of the SDP protocol. See sdp(7D).

       By default the SDP protocol is disabled on the system.  It can be enabled by using sdpadm enable.

OPTIONS

       The following subcommands are supported:

       status	  Displays the system status of the SDP protocol

       enable	  Enables the SDP protocol

       disable	  Disables the SDP protocol

USAGE

       The required privileges to change the state of the SDP protocol are controlled by the network configuration policy. If a user does not have
       the correct privileges to set the SDP policy, sdpadm returns the current state of SDP without having changed the state.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
