Subject:   Tracing binaries statically linked against vulnerable libs
Message-ID:  <cb5206420610052235t78033639vaa90429f07581078@mail.gmail.com>

I wonder if there is a way to deal with statically linked binaries,
which use vulnerable libraries.

There's this advisory:
http://www.vuxml.org/freebsd/964161cd-6715-11da-99f6-00123ffe8333.html

But mplayer and libxine are linked statically against ffmpeg,
as are reportedly many other apps like gstreamer. Of course
I can install every port that requires ffmpeg directly, look for
"lavc" strings and compare it to ldd output, but it sounds like
a nightmare.

Thanks!
