<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>A remote user could craft a specifically crafted image file that could
|
|
execute arbitrary code or cause denial of service.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>The user should refrain from opening files from untrusted third parties
|
|
or accessing untrusted remote sites (or disable the VLC browser plugins),
|
|
until they upgrade.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>All VLC users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
