TITLE:
Zoom Player Error Message Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28214

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28214/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Zoom Player 5.x
http://secunia.com/product/16542/

DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered a vulnerability in Zoom Player, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when creating
error messages for files that cannot be played. This can be exploited
to cause a buffer overflow via e.g. a specially crafted ZPL file
containing an HTTP link to a file with an overly long filename and a
PLS file extension.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 5.0.0.0 Standard and also
reported in version 6.00 beta 2. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
An upcoming beta will reportedly fix the vulnerability.

Do not open untrusted files.
