CVE-2006-5567
CVSS v2.0
9.3
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
WinAmp versions prior to 5.31
Description:
The issue is related to multiple heap-based buffer overflows that can be triggered by a crafted ultravox-max-msg header to the Ultravox protocol handler or unspecified Lyrics3 tags, allowing user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 5.31, update to version 5.31 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the Ultravox protocol handler until a patch is available. Restrict access to Lyrics3 tags to minimize the risk of exploitation.
