Description:
n00b has discovered a vulnerability in J. River Media Center, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an off-by-12 boundary error in the Tivo service (server_tivo.dll) when receiving data from the network. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by sending an overly long string (more than 4093 bytes) to the service (default port 8070/tcp).

Successful exploitation causes the security error handler to terminate the application.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 11.0.173. Other versions may also be affected.
