CVSS v3.1 |
| VideoLAN VLC Media Player 2.0.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long string in a URL in a m3u file. |
| The SHAddToRecentDocs function in VideoLAN VLC media player 2.0.4 and earlier might allow user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted file name that triggers an incorrect string-length calculation when the file is added to VLC. NOTE: it is not clear whether this issue crosses privilege boundaries or whether it can be exploited without user interaction. |
| libpng_plugin in VideoLAN VLC media player 2.0.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PNG file. |
| Buffer overflow in the mp4a packetizer (modules/packetizer/mpeg4audio.c) in VideoLAN VLC Media Player before 2.0.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors. |
| plugins/demux/libmkv_plugin.dll in VideoLAN VLC Media Player 2.0.7, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted MKV file, possibly involving an integer overflow and out-of-bounds read or heap-based buffer overflow, or an uncaught exception. NOTE: the vendor disputes the severity and claimed vulnerability type of this issue, stating "This PoC crashes VLC, indeed, but does nothing more... this is not an integer overflow error, but an uncaught exception and I doubt that it is exploitable. This uncaught exception makes VLC abort, not execute random code, on my Linux 64bits machine." A PoC posted by the original researcher shows signs of an attacker-controlled out-of-bounds read, but the affected instruction does not involve a register that directly influences control flow |
| The ReadMetaFromId3v2 function in taglib.cpp in the TagLib plugin in VideoLAN VLC media player 0.9.0 through 1.1.2 does not properly process ID3v2 tags, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted media file. |
| The parseRTSPRequestString function in Live Networks Live555 Streaming Media 2013.11.26, as used in VideoLAN VLC Media Player, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a space character at the beginning of an RTSP message, which triggers an integer underflow, infinite loop, and buffer overflow. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-6933. |
| VideoLAN VLC media player 2.0.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a crafted MP4 file. |
| Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in VideoLAN VLC media player before 2.0.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Real RTSP stream. |
| Stack-based buffer overflow in VideoLAN VLC Media Player 0.8.6 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an ogg file with a crafted Advanced SubStation Alpha Subtitle (.ass) file, probably involving the Dialogue field. |
| A binary hijacking vulnerability exists within the VideoLAN VLC media player before 3.0.19 on Windows. The uninstaller attempts to execute code with elevated privileges out of a standard user writable location. Standard users may use this to gain arbitrary code execution as SYSTEM. |
| A NULL-pointer dereference in "Open" in avi.c of VideoLAN VLC Media Player 3.0.11 can a denial of service (DOS) in the application. |
| A buffer overflow vulnerability in the vlc_input_attachment_New component of VideoLAN VLC Media Player 3.0.11 allows attackers to cause an out-of-bounds read via a crafted .avi file. |
| A buffer overflow vulnerability in the AVI_ExtractSubtitle component of VideoLAN VLC Media Player 3.0.11 allows attackers to cause an out-of-bounds read via a crafted .avi file. |
| A buffer overflow vulnerability in the __Parse_indx component of VideoLAN VLC Media Player 3.0.11 allows attackers to cause an out-of-bounds read via a crafted .avi file. |
| A vulnerability in EbmlTypeDispatcher::send in VideoLAN VLC media player 3.0.11 allows attackers to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow via a crafted .mkv file. |
| A heap-based buffer overflow in the hxxx_AnnexB_to_xVC function in modules/packetizer/hxxx_nal.c in VideoLAN VLC media player before 3.0.11 for macOS/iOS allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a crafted H.264 Annex-B video (.avi for example) file. |
| An Integer underflow in VLC Media Player versions < 3.0.7 leads to an out-of-band read. |
| An off-by-one error in the DecodeBlock function in codec/sdl_image.c in VideoLAN VLC media player before 3.0.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted image file. NOTE: this may be related to the SDL_Image product. |
| When executing VideoLAN VLC media player 3.0.8 with libqt on Windows, Data from a Faulting Address controls Code Flow starting at libqt_plugin!vlc_entry_license__3_0_0f+0x00000000003b9aba. NOTE: the VideoLAN security team indicates that they have not been contacted, and have no way of reproducing this issue. |
