HTTP: XMPlay ASX Buffer Overflow

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the XMPlay 3.3.0.4 (ASX Filename). A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the user.

Extended Description

XMPlay is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data prior to loading malformed playlist files. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the application or trigger a denial-of-service condition. XMPlay 3.3.0.4 is vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected.
