Xbmc get tag from file name request remote buffer overflow 8.10

This exploit happens when parsing and overly long id3 tag to the web server. It is possible to overwrite the exception handlers also so creating a reliable exploit for vista and xps3 shouldn't be to hard. The exploit is triggered by sending a specially crafted request to the web server.

Mitigation:

Filtering of user input should be done to prevent buffer overflows.

This exploit happens when parsing and overly long id3
tag to the web server.Dont think i covered this much
in the poc code as i was running out of time on this
exploit.


We are able to overwrite the exception handlers also so 
creating a reliable exploit for vista and xps3 shouldn't 
be to hard have a look there are some modules loaded with 
out /safe seh. 

Credits to n00b for finding the buffer overflow and writing 
poc code and exploit.
