Introduction: DirectShowDemuxFilter as part of Divx plugin suite is vulnerable to heap-based buffer overflow, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerability is caused due to a signedness error in the processing of "STRF" (Stream Format) chunks. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted AVI file. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code by tricking a user into visiting a malicious website. DirectShowDemuxFilter is used by DivX Web Player, Divx Player and any application using Divx plugins like Windows Media Player (When Divx is installed).
