Microsoft Windows Media Player 9

Multiple buffer overflows in libpng 1.2.5 and earlier, as used in multiple products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed PNG images in which (1) the png_handle_tRNS function does not properly validate the length of transparency chunk (tRNS) data, or the (2) png_handle_sBIT or (3) png_handle_hIST functions do not perform sufficient bounds checking.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the bitmap processing routine in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1 on Windows 2000 SP4, Media Player 9 on Windows 2000 SP4 and XP SP1, and Media Player 10 on XP SP1 and SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted bitmap (.BMP) file that specifies a size of 0 but contains additional data.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 and 10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PNG image with a large chunk size.

Microsoft Windows Media Runtime, as used in DirectShow WMA Voice Codec, Windows Media Audio Voice Decoder, and Audio Compression Manager (ACM), does not properly process Advanced Systems Format (ASF) files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted audio file that uses the Windows Media Speech codec, aka "Windows Media Runtime Voice Sample Rate Vulnerability."

Microsoft Windows Media Player (WMP) 9 through 12 does not properly deallocate objects during a browser reload action, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted media content referenced in an HTML document, aka "Windows Media Player Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Windows Media Runtime, as used in DirectShow WMA Voice Codec, Windows Media Audio Voice Decoder, and Audio Compression Manager (ACM), does not properly initialize unspecified functions within compressed audio files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a crafted media file or (2) crafted streaming content, aka "Windows Media Runtime Heap Corruption Vulnerability."

Unspecified vulnerability in the Windows Media Player ActiveX control in Windows Media Player (WMP) 9 on Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 and XP SP2 and SP3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted media content, aka "Media Player Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1, 9, 10, and 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a skin file (WMZ or WMD) with crafted header information that is not properly handled during decompression, aka "Windows Media Player Code Execution Vulnerability Decompressing Skins."

Windows Media Player 9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PNG file containing large (1) width or (2) height values, aka the "PNG Processing Vulnerability."

Microsoft Windows Media Player (WMP) 9 on Windows XP SP2 invokes Internet Explorer to render HTML documents contained inside some media files, regardless of what default web browser is configured, which might allow remote attackers to exploit vulnerabilities in software that the user does not expect to run, as demonstrated by the HTMLView parameter in an .asx file.

Windows Media Player 9 and 10, in certain cases, allows content protected by Windows Media Digital Rights Management (WMDRM) to redirect the user to a web site to obtain a license, even when the "Acquire licenses automatically for protected content" setting is not enabled.

A certain Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 Series ActiveX control allows remote attackers to view and manipulate the Media Library on the local system via HTML script.

The DHTML capability in Microsoft Windows Media Player (WMP) 6.4, 7.0, 7.1, and 9 may run certain URL commands from a security zone that is less trusted than the current zone, which allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions.

QUARTZ.DLL in Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 allows remote attackers to write a null byte to arbitrary memory via an AVI file with a crafted strn element with a modified length value.

The getItemInfoByAtom function in the ActiveX control for Microsoft Windows Media Player 9.0 returns a 0 if the file does not exist and the size of the file if the file exists, which allows remote attackers to determine the existence of files on the local system.

Integer overflow in quartz.dll in the DirectShow framework in Microsoft Windows Media Player (WMP) 9, 10, and 11, including 11.0.5721.5260, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted (1) WAV, (2) SND, or (3) MID file. NOTE: this has been incorrectly reported as a code-execution vulnerability. NOTE: it is not clear whether this issue is related to CVE-2008-4927.

Buffer overflow in Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 and 11.0.5721.5145 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a crafted .mpg file.

Microsoft Windows Media Player (WMP) 9.0 through 11 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed (1) MIDI or (2) DAT file, related to "MThd Header Parsing." NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.

Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1, 9, 10, and 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a skin file (WMZ or WMD) with crafted header information that causes a size mismatch between compressed and decompressed data and triggers a heap-based buffer overflow, aka "Windows Media Player Code Execution Vulnerability Parsing Skins."

The Microsoft Windows Media Player 9.0 ActiveX control may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary web script in the Local computer zone via the (1) artist or (2) song fields of a music file, if the file is processed using Internet Explorer.
