Description:
Code Audit Labs has discovered a vulnerability in Media Player Classic, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error when processing .AVI files and can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a .AVI file with a specially crafted "indx" chunk.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 6.4.9.0. Other versions may also be affected.
