The latest version - 2013.11.26 - of the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" code fixes a 
serious potential buffer-overflow bug in the RTSP command parsing code.  This 
bug could potentially allow an attacker (with a malicious RTSP client or 
server) to cause cause arbitrary code to be executed in your own RTSP server or 
client.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  All LIVE555-based applications that include a RTSP client or 
RTSP server should ***upgrade to this latest version ASAP***!

(The bug affected RTSP clients as well as RTSP servers, because RTSP clients 
can also receive commands.)

Many thanks to iSEC Partners <http://isecpartners.com/> for discovering and 
reporting this bug.
