CVE-2006-6539

HIGH 10.0EPSS 7.87%

Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (7.87%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

Multiple buffer overflows in Winamp Web Interface (Wawi) 7.5.13 and earlier (1) allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an (a) long username or a (b) crafted packet to the FindBasicAuth function in security.cpp, related to the /browse URI; and allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long path string in the (2) Browse, (3) CControl::Download, and (4) CControl::Load functions, related to the file parameter in the /dl URI. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.
