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. |

There is a later version of Media Player Classic than the one identified in this vulnerability - 6.4.9.1. The latest version of QuickTime Alternative (3.1.1) bundles that version. Is this vulnerability confirmed there? | ||||||||

Hi The original creators of Media Player Classic has disbanded the project and Media Player Classic is now End-Of-Life. There is however a new project based on Media Player Classic called Media Player Classic Home Cinema which is still supported. |
