1) A boundary error within the processing of WAV files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted WAV file.
2) A boundary error within the processing of SMIL files can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted SMIL file.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities allows execution of arbitrary code.
