**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
VLC media player versions 0.8.6d and earlier
Miro Player versions 1.1 and earlier
**Description**
The issue allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary memory and execute arbitrary code via a malformed MP4 file. This is related to the MP4 demuxer (mp4.c) in VLC media player when used in Miro Player.
**Recommendations**
For VLC media player versions 0.8.6d and earlier, update to a version later than 0.8.6d to resolve the issue.
For Miro Player versions 1.1 and earlier, update to a version later than 1.1 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of the MP4 demuxer (mp4.c) in VLC media player until a patch is available.
