Descriptions

Heap-based buffer overflow in the cook codec in RealNetworks RealPlayer 11.0 through 11.1, RealPlayer SP 1.0 through 1.1.5, and Linux RealPlayer 11.0.2.1744 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified data in the initialization buffer.

Desbordamiento de buffer basado en montón en el codec cook de RealNetworks RealPlayer v11.0 hasta v11.1, RealPlayer SP v1.0 hasta v1.1.5, y Linux RealPlayer v11.0.2.1744, permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección a través de datos no especificados en la inicialización del buffer.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of RealNetworks RealPlayer. 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 within how the application parses cook-specific data used for initialization. The application will use a length in a copy without verifying it being larger than the destination buffer. Successful exploitation can lead to code execution under the context of the application.
