TITLE:
SCMPX Playlist Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35596

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35596/

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in SCMPX, which can be exploited
by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing
of playlist files. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow via e.g. an M3U file having an overly long entry.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.5.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not process untrusted playlist files with SCMPX.
