    High · CVSS 8.5EPSS 0.17%No fix published

    VLC media player before 3.0.24 Path Traversal via skins2

    VLC media player before 3.0.24 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the skins2 ThemeLoader that fails to validate member names in .vlt skin archives. Attackers can craft malicious skin files with path traversal sequences to write arbitrary files with VLC user privileges, enabling code execution through Lua script injection.

  4. CVE-2024-46461

    High · CVSS 8EPSS 0.6%Fix available

    CVE-2024-46461

    VLC media player 3.0.20 and earlier is vulnerable to denial of service through an integer overflow which could be triggered with a maliciously crafted mms stream (heap based overflow). If successful, a malicious third party could trigger either a crash of VLC or an arbitrary code execution with the target user's privileges.

  9. CVE-2020-6080

    High · CVSS 7.5EPSS 2.44%Fix available

    CVE-2020-6080

    An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the resource allocation handling of Videolabs libmicrodns 0.1.0. When encountering errors while parsing mDNS messages, some allocated data is not freed, possibly leading to a denial-of-service condition via resource exhaustion. An attacker can send one mDNS message repeatedly to trigger this vulnerability through the function rr_read_RR [5] reads the current resource record, except for the RDATA section. This is read by the loop at in rr_read. For each RR type, a different function is called. When the RR type is 0x10, the function rr_read_TXT is called at [6].

    CVE-2020-6079

    An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the resource allocation handling of Videolabs libmicrodns 0.1.0. When encountering errors while parsing mDNS messages, some allocated data is not freed, possibly leading to a denial-of-service condition via resource exhaustion. An attacker can send one mDNS message repeatedly to trigger this vulnerability through decoding of the domain name performed by rr_decode.

  11. CVE-2020-6072

    Critical · CVSS 9.8EPSS 3.8%Fix available

    CVE-2020-6072

    An exploitable code execution vulnerability exists in the label-parsing functionality of Videolabs libmicrodns 0.1.0. When parsing compressed labels in mDNS messages, the rr_decode function's return value is not checked, leading to a double free that could be exploited to execute arbitrary code. An attacker can send an mDNS message to trigger this vulnerability.

  12. CVE-2020-6071

    High · CVSS 7.5EPSS 2.5%Fix available

    CVE-2020-6071

    An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the resource record-parsing functionality of Videolabs libmicrodns 0.1.0. When parsing compressed labels in mDNS messages, the compression pointer is followed without checking for recursion, leading to a denial of service. An attacker can send an mDNS message to trigger this vulnerability.

  13. CVE-2020-6073

    High · CVSS 7.5EPSS 2.5%Fix available

    CVE-2020-6073

    An exploitable denial-of-service vulnerability exists in the TXT record-parsing functionality of Videolabs libmicrodns 0.1.0. When parsing the RDATA section in a TXT record in mDNS messages, multiple integer overflows can be triggered, leading to a denial of service. An attacker can send an mDNS message to trigger this vulnerability.
