DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in RealPlayer, where one
has an unknown impact and others can be exploited by malicious people
to compromise a user's system.
1) An integer overflow error in the parsing of QCP files can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially
crafted file.
2) An error in the processing of dimensions in the YUV420
transformation of content can be exploited to corrupt memory via a
specially crafted file.
3) A boundary error in the parsing of QCP audio content can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer via specially crafted files
containing certain overly large size values.
4) Two integer overflow errors in the "ParseKnownType()" function
when handling the "HX_FLV_META_AMF_TYPE_MIXEDARRAY" and
"HX_FLV_META_AMF_TYPE_ARRAY" data types can be exploited to corrupt
memory via specially crafted FLV files.
5) An unspecified error exists in the RealPlayer ActiveX IE Plugin
when opening multiple browser windows.
The vulnerabilities are reported in version 1.1.4 and prior.
SOLUTION:
Update to RealPlayer SP version 1.1.5.
