Sorry, when pushing the security update for mplayer:
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4154

the tainted version was missed.

I just pushed it to tainted/updates so it should soon be available.

Does not work out-of-the-box. Enabling 'tainted updates' in media manager (and updating media) still not bring the update (tested with i586 Mageia). Maybe server syncing?
