Description: A vulnerability has been discovered in VCDGear, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing cue files and can be exploited to cause a stack based buffer overflow via a specially crafted cue file containing an overly long "FILE" string.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but requires that a user is tricked into opening a malicious cue file.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.55 and reported in version 3.56 build 050213 BETA. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution: Do not open untrusted cue files.
Provided and/or discovered by: InTeL
