Description:
wushi has reported a vulnerability in MSN Messenger, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the handling of video conversations and can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via specially crafted data sent to a user.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but requires that the victim accepts the incoming Web Cam invitation.
