Stack-based buffer overflow in BlazeVideo HDTV Player 2.1, and possibly earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename in a PLF playlist, a different product than CVE-2006-6199. NOTE: it was later reported that 3.5 is also affected.

Security readout for executives and security teams

BlazeVideo HDTV Player can be crashed or potentially taken over when it processes a malicious PLF playlist containing an overly long filename. The issue is old, but any remaining installations can expose user workstations to code execution if users open untrusted playlist files. Exposure is likely limited to endpoints where BlazeVideo HDTV Player 2.1, 3.5, or possibly earlier versions remain installed and can open PLF playlist files from untrusted sources. Prioritize cleanup if this software exists on managed endpoints. The business risk is workstation compromise through a legacy media player, mainly from users opening malicious playlist files. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for BlazeVideo HDTV Player installations.; Remove affected or unsupported BlazeVideo HDTV Player versions where possible.; Check vendor or archived advisory guidance for fixed versions..
