The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when constructing an absolute path to a file referenced within an M3U playlist. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via an overly long string in a playlist file. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.0.0.0. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not open untrusted playlists.
