DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered two vulnerabilities in Winamp, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
1) An integer overflow error in the "in_mkv.dll" plugin when
allocating memory using "malloc()" can be exploited to cause a
heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted MKV file.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
2) A boundary error in the "in_mod.dll" plugin when parsing
Multitracker Module (MTM) files and can be exploited to cause a
stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted file.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code but
requires the user to click on the "View file info" option.
The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 5.581. Other versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted MKV or MTM files.
