Title: FoxMediaTools FoxPlayer '.m3u' File Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

FoxMediaTools FoxPlayer is a multimedia player available for Microsoft Windows.

The application is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate checks on user-supplied input. Specifically, this issue occurs when opening a specially crafted '.m3u' file.

Attackers may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.

FoxPlayer 1.7.0 and 2.0 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

Affected Products:

  • FoxMediaTools FoxPlayer 1.7.0
  • FoxMediaTools FoxPlayer 2.0
