The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when setting the filename in the "Properties" dialog item. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a user into opening a specially crafted "*.m3u" file containing an overly long filename. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 0.6.1 build 4045 and is also reported in the development version 0.6.2 build 4275. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not open untrusted playlist files.
