VUPlayer v2.49 ( .wax file ) Local buffer overflow Exploit
VUPlayer v2.49 is vulnerable to a local buffer overflow vulnerability when a specially crafted .wax, .m3u, or .pls file is opened. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by corrupting the stack and overwriting the return address with a pointer to the malicious code. The exploit code creates a malicious .m3u file which contains 1012 A's followed by a return address pointing to the malicious code, 4 NOPs, and the malicious code itself.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of VUPlayer.
