| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Media Player Classic version 6.4.9
Description
The issue is caused by an integer overflow that allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This is achieved through a MIDI file with a malformed header, which triggers a buffer overflow.
Recommendations
For Media Player Classic version 6.4.9, consider avoiding the use of MIDI files until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the playback of .mid files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
