Integer Overflow Vulnerability in Winamp's NSV Plugin by Nullsoft

CVE-2010-2586

What is CVE-2010-2586?

The vulnerability in Winamp's NSV plugin arises from multiple integer overflows in the in_nsv.dll file, which can be exploited by remote attackers. By crafting a malicious Table of Contents (TOC) within an NSV stream or NSV file, these attackers can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution on the affected system. This security concern highlights the importance of maintaining updated software to mitigate risks associated with older versions.
