DESCRIPTION:
aBo MoHaMeD has discovered a vulnerability in Destiny Media Player,
which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise
a user's system.

playlist files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
overflow via e.g. ".lst" or ".m3u" files having an overly long line.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.61.0 for Windows. Other
versions may also be affected.
