DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Winamp, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) An integer overflow error exists in the "in_nsv.dll" plugin when
parsing the NSV Table of Contents data. This can be exploited to
cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted stream or
file.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

This vulnerability is confirmed in versions 5.581 and 5.59 Beta Build
3033.

2) Some integer overflow errors within "in_midi" can be exploited to
cause buffer overflows.

This vulnerability is reported in versions prior to 5.6.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 5.6.
