Discussion

Real Networks RealPlayer CVE-2013-4973 Stack Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

RealPlayer is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the software fails to perform adequate boundary-checks on user-supplied data.

An attacker can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the vulnerable application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.

RealPlayer for Windows 16.0.2.32 and prior are vulnerable.
