+Vulnerability fixes
+</p>
+<p>
+Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in MPlayer by iDEFENSE, and more 
+were found by us while reviewing the code:
+</p>
+<ul>
+    <li>
+	potential heap overflow in Real rtsp streaming code
+	<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/patches/rtsp_fix_20041215.diff">patch here</a>
+    </li>
+    <li>
+	potential stack overflow in mmst streaming code
+	<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/patches/mmst_fix_20041215.diff">patch here</a>
+    </li>
+    <li>
+	multiple buffer overflows in bmp demuxer
+	<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/patches/bmp_fix_20041215.diff">patch here</a>
+    </li>
+    <li>
+	potential heap overflow in pnm streaming code
+	<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/patches/pnm_fix_20041215.diff">patch here</a>
+    </li>
+    <li>
+	potential buffer overflow in mp3lib
+	<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/patches/mp3_fix_20041215.diff">patch here</a>
+    </li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+All issues affect both pre5 and CVS version.<br>
+0.93 version is obsolete and was not checked nor fixed.
+</p>
+<p>
+All problems were fixed, and the bmp demuxer was also disabled because it's 
+useless and requires further analysis to be totally safe.
+</p>
+<ul>
+    <li>
+	pre5 users: upgrade to pre5try2 or apply this 
+	<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/patches/pre5-pre5try2.diff">cumulative patch</a>
+    </li>
+    <li>
+	CVS users: cvs update
+    </li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+An updated build from CVS is also available for Windows users 
+<a href="http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/win32-beta/">here</a>
