Analysis Summary
CVE-2019-13602, CVE-2019-13962, CVE-2019-14437, CVE-2019-14438, CVE-2019-14498, CVE-2019-14533, CVE-2019-14534, CVE-2019-14535, CVE-2019-14776, CVE-2019-14777, CVE-2019-14778, CVE-2019-14970
A remote user could create a specifically crafted file that could trigger issues ranging from buffer overflows to division by zero. If successful, a malicious third party could trigger either a crash of VLC or an arbitratry code execution with the privileges of the target user.
While these issues in themselves are most likely to just crash the player, we can’t exclude that they could be combined to leak user information or remotely execute code. ASLR and DEP help reduce the likelyness of code execution, but may be bypassed.
Impact
- Privilege access
- Arbitrary code execution
Affected Vendors
VLC
Affected Products
VLC media player 3.0.7.1 and earlier
Remediation
Update to version 3.0.8 .
