RealPlayer File Format Handling Vulnerability
A problem with the handling of file format may make it possible to remotely crash RealPlayer. The problem could also potentially result in code execution. Upon receiving a file with a malformed header, it is possible to crash the RealPlayer client. A file that specifies a content length greater than the actual size creates a circumstance where RealPlayer reacts unpredictably and becomes unstable. This usually results in the crashing of RealPlayer. This problem may also make it possible to execute arbitrary code.
Mitigation:
Update to the latest version of RealPlayer
