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

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when importing
ASX playlist files and can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
overflow via an overly long HREF attribute in the REF element.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but
requires tricking a user into importing a malicious ASX file.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 5.2. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not import ASX playlist files from untrusted sources.
