Description:
Preth00nker has discovered a vulnerability in AtomixMP3, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the handling of the mp3atabase.txt file when using the "Search" button. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long (greater than 512 bytes) string as the contents of the said file.

Successful exploitation requires that a user is tricked into e.g. overwriting or copying a malicious mp3database.txt file into the AtomixMP3 folder and double-clicking on the malicious entry within the "Search" display.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.3. Other versions may also be affected.
