Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
EUVDB-ID: #VU6673
Risk: High
CVSSv3.1: 8.8 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:U/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2017-8311
CWE-ID:
CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
Exploit availability: Yes
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code and take over the device.
The weakness exists due to a boundary error in ParseJSS in VideoLAN VLC when processing subtitles. A remote attacker can create specially crafted subtitle file, which when loaded by the target user with the help of affected software leads to arbitrary code execution.
Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may result in full control over the affected PC.
MitigationCybersecurity Help is currently unaware of any official solution to address this vulnerability.
