DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in VCDGear, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing
cue files and can be exploited to cause a stack based buffer overflow
via a specially crafted cue file containing an overly long "FILE"
string.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but
requires that a user is tricked into opening a malicious cue file.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 3.55 and reported in
version 3.56 build 050213 BETA. Other versions may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted cue files.
