Title: RETIRED: dBpowerAMP Audio Player M3U Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

dBpowerAMP Audio Player is a media player for Mircosoft Windows.

The application is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

This issue occurs when the application handles a specially crafted .M3U file with an overly long URI.

Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will cause denial-of-service conditions.

This issue affects dBpoweramp Audio Player Release 2; other versions may also be affected.

NOTE: This BID is being retired because the vulnerability discussed was previously documented in BID 27635.

Affected Products:

  • dBpoweramp Audio Player Release 2
