Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the HTTP Interface in VideoLAN VLC Media Player before 2.0.7 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) command parameter to requests/vlm_cmd.xml, (2) dir parameter to requests/browse.xml, or (3) URI in a request, which is returned in an error message through share/lua/intf/http.lua.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2013-3565 is a set of cross-site scripting flaws in the VLC Media Player HTTP Interface before 2.0.7. If that interface is reachable, an attacker could inject script or HTML into interface responses. The business risk is mainly to systems that expose or rely on VLC's web control interface. Exposure is likely limited to VLC installations with the HTTP Interface enabled and reachable by untrusted users or networks. Desktop VLC use without the HTTP Interface exposed appears less relevant based on the provided sources. Prioritize remediation where VLC's HTTP Interface is exposed on shared, server, kiosk, lab, or remote-control systems. For ordinary unmanaged desktops without that interface exposed, urgency is lower but upgrade hygiene still applies. Mitigation focus: Upgrade VLC Media Player to version 2.0.7 or later.; Use distribution packages that include the VideoLAN fix.; Review VideoLAN and OS vendor advisories for supported platform guidance..
