Descriptions

The RealAudioObjects.RealAudio ActiveX control in rmoc3260.dll in RealNetworks RealPlayer Enterprise, RealPlayer 10, RealPlayer 10.5 before build 6.0.12.1675, and RealPlayer 11 before 11.0.3 build 6.0.14.806 does not properly manage memory for the (1) Console or (2) Controls property, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (browser crash) via a series of assignments of long string values, which triggers an overwrite of freed heap memory.

El control de ActiveX RealAudioObjects.RealAudio en rmoc3260.dll en RealNetworks RealPlayer Enterprise, RealPlayer 10, RealPlayer 10.5 en versiones anteriores a build 6.0.12.1675 y RealPlayer 11 en versiones anteriores a 11.0.3 build 6.0.14.806 no gestiona adecuadamente la memoria para la propiedad (1) Console o (2) Controls, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (caída del navegador) a través de una serie de asignaciones de valores de cadena larga, lo que desencadena una sobrescritura de la memoria dinámica liberada.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute code on vulnerable installations of RealPlayer. User interaction is required in that a user must visit a malicious web site.
The specific flaw exists in the rmoc3260 ActiveX control exposed through the following CLSIDs:
CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA 0FDF6D6B-D672-463B-846E-C6FF49109662 224E833B-2CC6-42D9-AE39-90B6A38A4FA2 2F542A2E-EDC9-4BF7-8CB1-87C9919F7F93 3B46067C-FD87-49B6-8DDD-12F0D687035F 3B5E0503-DE28-4BE8-919C-76E0E894A3C2 44CCBCEB-BA7E-4C99-A078-9F683832D493 A1A41E11-91DB-4461-95CD-0C02327FD934 CFCDA953-8BE4-11CF-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA
Specifying malicious values for the 'Controls' or 'Console' properties with a specific timing results in a memory corruption which can lead to code execution under the context of the current user.
