TITLE:

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA35295
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/35295/
DESCRIPTION:
Gjoko Krstic has discovered a vulnerability in AIMP, which can be
exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's
system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing
of MP3 files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
overflow via an MP3 file having an overly long ID3 tag.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.51 build 330. Other
versions may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted files using the application.
PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
