Description:
grzdyl has discovered a vulnerability in SubEdit Player, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing subtitle files. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted, overly long line contained in a malicious subtitle file.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in SubEdit Player build 4056 and reported in build 4066. Other versions may also be affected.
