Heap-based buffer overflow in INMOD.DLL (aka the Module Decoder Plug-in) in Winamp before 5.57, and libmikmod 3.1.12, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an Ultratracker file.
Integer overflow in INMOD.DLL (aka the Module Decoder Plug-in) in Winamp before 5.57 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an Oktalyzer file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
Multiple heap-based buffer overflow vulnerabilities were found in libmikmod. These flaws could allow a remote attacker able to coerce a local user using an application linked against libmikmod, to open an Impulse Tracker, crafted samples, or an Ultratracker file, to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
CVE-2009-3995:
Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in INMOD.DLL (aka the Module Decoder Plug-in) in Winamp before 5.57, and libmikmod 3.1.12, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) crafted samples or (2) crafted instrument definitions in an Impulse Tracker file. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
CVE-2009-3996:
Heap-based buffer overflow in INMOD.DLL (aka the Module Decoder Plug-in) in Winamp before 5.57, and libmikmod 3.1.12, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an Ultratracker file.

libmp4v2.dll in Winamp 5.02 through 5.34 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a certain .MP4 file. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
Multiple integer overflows in the jpeg.w5s and png.w5s filters in Winamp before 5.57 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed (1) JPEG or (2) PNG data in an MP3 file.
Multiple integer overflows in the inavi.dll plugin in Winamp before 5.623 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an AVI file with a crafted value for (1) the number of streams or (2) the size of the RIFF INFO chunk, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
The Impulse Tracker (IT) and ScreamTracker 3 (S3M) modules in INMOD.DLL in AOL Nullsoft Winamp 5.33 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) .IT or (2) .S3M file containing integer values that are used as memory offsets, which triggers memory corruption.
LIBSNDFILE.DLL, as used by AOL Nullsoft Winamp 5.33 and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .MAT file that contains a value that is used as an offset, which triggers memory corruption.
The Nullsoft Modern Skins Support module (genff.dll) in Nullsoft Winamp before 5.552 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted MAKI file, which triggers an incorrect sign extension, an integer overflow, and a stack-based buffer overflow.
Heap-based buffer overflow in aiffreadheader in libsndfile 1.0.15 through 1.0.19, as used in Winamp 5.552 and possibly other media programs, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an AIFF file with an invalid header value.
Heap-based buffer overflow in vocreadheader in libsndfile 1.0.15 through 1.0.19, as used in Winamp 5.552 and possibly other media programs, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a VOC file with an invalid header value.
Heap-based buffer overflow in genmsn.dll in the genmsn plugin 0.31 for Winamp 5.541 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a playlist (.pls) file with a long URL in the File1 field. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
Untrusted search path vulnerability in Nullsoft Winamp 5.581, and probably other versions, allows local users, and possibly remote attackers, to execute arbitrary code and conduct DLL hijacking attacks via a Trojan horse wnaspi32.dll that is located in the same folder as a .669, .aac, .aiff, .amf, .au, .avr, .b4s, .caf or .cda file.
Integer overflow in libsndfile 1.0.18, as used in Winamp and other products, allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted description chunks in a CAF audio file, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
Buffer overflow in the inmod plugin in Winamp before 5.6 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via vectors related to the comment box.
Integer overflow in the innsv plugin in Winamp before 5.6 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via vectors related to improper allocation of memory for NSV metadata, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2586.
Multiple integer overflows in the inmidi plugin in Winamp before 5.6 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted MIDI file that triggers a buffer overflow.
Multiple integer overflows in innsv.dll in the innsv plugin in Winamp before 5.6 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Table of Contents (TOC) in a (1) NSV stream or (2) NSV file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS) before 2.49 has unsafe implicit linking against Version.dll. In other words, there is no protection mechanism in which a wrapper function resolves the dependency at an appropriate time during runtime.
Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS) before 3.11 on Windows allows local users to escalate privileges to SYSTEM during an installation, because the temporary plugins directory is created under %WINDIR%\temp and unprivileged users can place a crafted executable file by winning a race condition. This occurs because EWCREATEDIR does not always set the CreateRestrictedDirectory error flag.
