Subject: [gui-talk] Important Winamp Security Patch Now Available


An important patch has just been released to fix a security issue in
Winamp 5.34.  One place where you can download the patch from is at
http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/Winamp_5_Security_Patch/1066336873/4.
The patch is 56kb in size.  Here is some information about the patch:

Winamp 5.34a Security Patch includes a patched version of in_mp4.dll
(v1.22) that
fixes the MP4 file parsing buffer overflow vulnerability. The
vulnerability is caused
due to an error within the handling of MP4 files and can be exploited
to cause memory
corruption via a specially crafted MP4 file. Successful exploitation
allows execution
of arbitrary code.
