Detail
| Multiple security vulnerabilities have been identified in the helix-player media player that could allow an attacker to execute code on the victim's machine via specially crafted network resources. CAN-2005-1766 Buffer overflow in the RealText parser could allow remote code execution via a specially crafted RealMedia file with a long RealText string. CAN-2005-2710 Format string vulnerability in Real HelixPlayer and RealPlayer 10 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the image handle attribute in a RealPix (.rp) or RealText (.rt) file. For the stable distribution (sarge), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.4-1sarge1 For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.6-1 We recommend that you upgrade your helix-player package. |

| 19696 | RealNetworks Helix Player invalid-handle Error Message Format String <PRODUCT> contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to <ISSUE_DESCRIPTION>. The issue is triggered when <CONDITION> occurs. It is possible that the flaw may allow <IMPACT> resulting in a loss of <confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability>. c0ntex has discovered a vulnerability in Helix Player, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerability is caused due to a format string error when displaying the invalid-handle error message. This may be exploited to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted ".rp" file. The ".rt" file format may also be affected. Successful exploitation requires that the user is e.g. tricking into opening or following a link to a malicious ".rp" file. The vulnerability has been confirmed in Helix Player 1.0.5.757 (gold), and affects only the Linux/Unix platforms. Other versions may also be affected. |
