RealPlayer is prone to a remote buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.
Attackers may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.
RealPlayer 11.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
REFERENCE
The Vulnerability Team adviced to users and administrators to review and apply the updates notifications
necessary to help mitigate the risks.
