What is CVE-2010-20123?

Steinberg MyMP3Player version 3.0 (build 3.0.0.67) contains a critical vulnerability that results in a stack-based buffer overflow when processing .m3u playlist files. The application inadequately verifies the length of input data, allowing an attacker to craft a malicious .m3u file that, when opened by the user, can overwrite essential memory structures. This weakness can lead to the execution of arbitrary code, posing serious security risks to users.

Affected Version(s)

MyMP3Player * <= 3.0.0.67

Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
