CVE-2005-0191
Off-by-one buffer overflow in the processing of tags in Real Metadata Package (RMP) files in RealPlayer 10.5 (6.0.12.1040) and earlier could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long tag.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.43%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
