Description:
Three vulnerabilities have been discovered in RealPlayer, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
1) A boundary error within "embd3260.dll" when constructing error messages can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted movie file embedded in an HTML document.
2) A boundary error when parsing URLs can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a RAM file containing a specially crafted URL with a large number of period characters (".").
3) A boundary error within the handling of certain media files (".RA", ."RM", ."RV", and ".RMJ") can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted media file containing malformed parameters.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities allows execution of arbitrary code.
