Description

Parvez Anwar has discovered some vulnerabilities in InterVideo WinDVD Media Center, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerabilities are caused due to NULL-pointer dereference errors within InterVideo IMC Server (IMCSvr.exe) and InterVideo Home Theater (IHT.exe) when handling received packets. These can be exploited to crash the affected processes via a specially crafted packet containing two CRLF sequences.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.11.15.0 of the installer package.

Solution
Use in a trusted network environment only.
