Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Winamp 3 version 1.0.0.488

Description A buffer overflow issue exists in the XML parser of the wsabi.dll component. This issue can be triggered by a skin file (.wal) containing a long include file tag, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Recommendations For Winamp 3 version 1.0.0.488, consider avoiding the use of skin files (.wal) with long include file tags until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the use of the XML parser in wsabi.dll to minimize the risk of exploitation.
