Stack-based buffer overflow in Nullsoft Winamp 5.32 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted unicode in a .mp4 file, with crafted tags, contained in a certain .rar archive, a related issue to CVE-2007-2498. NOTE: for exploitation, the victim must select a certain menu option at the time of the attack.
Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in inmp3.dll in Winamp 5.21, 5.5, and 5.51 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) artist or (2) name tag in Ultravox streaming metadata, related to construction of stream titles.
Winamp 5.63: Invalid Pointer Dereference leading to Arbitrary Code Execution
Winamp 5.666 Build 3516(x86) allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a crafted .flv file, related to "Data from Faulting Address controls Code Flow starting at inflv!winampGetInModule2+0x00000000000009a8."
Winamp 5.666 Build 3516(x86) might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a crafted .flv file, related to "Data from Faulting Address controls Branch Selection starting at inmp3!DeleteAudioDecoder+0x000000000000762f."
Winamp 5.666 Build 3516(x86) might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a crafted .flv file, related to "Data from Faulting Address may be used as a return value starting at f263!GetWinamp5SystemComponent+0x0000000000001951."
Winamp 5.666 Build 3516(x86) might allow attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a crafted .flv file, related to "Error Code (0xe06d7363) starting at wow64!Wow64NotifyDebugger+0x000000000000001d."
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.
