Descriptions

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."

Una Vulnerabilidad no especificada en Microsoft Windows Media Player versiones 7.1, 9, 10 y 11 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario por medio de un archivo skin (WMZ o WMD) con información de encabezado creada que no es manejada apropiadamente durante la descompresión, también se conoce como "Windows Media Player Code Execution Vulnerability Decompressing Skins."

This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows Media Player. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists while decompressing skin files (.WMZ and .WMD) with malformed headers. During this process the malformed values are used to improperly calculate data which can later allow an attacker to execute code under the rights of the current user.
