The parseRTSPRequestString function in Live Networks Live555 Streaming Media 2013.11.26, as used in VideoLAN VLC Media Player, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a space character at the beginning of an RTSP message, which triggers an integer underflow, infinite loop, and buffer overflow. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2013-6933.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2013-6934 is a legacy LIVE555 RTSP parsing flaw, also noted as used in VLC Media Player. A malformed RTSP message beginning with a space can crash the process and may allow arbitrary code execution. The bundle does not provide CVSS, confirmed exploitation, or a definitive fixed version. Exposure is most likely in legacy applications or services embedding LIVE555 2013.11.26, including VLC builds using that library, when they parse untrusted RTSP input. The provided affected-product metadata is incomplete, so version confirmation is required. Prioritize if RTSP processing is exposed to untrusted networks or used in business-critical media workflows. For isolated or retired legacy systems, handle through normal lifecycle remediation after confirming exposure. Mitigation focus: Identify systems using LIVE555 2013.11.26 or VLC builds that include it.; Check LIVE555 and VLC vendor guidance for fixed versions or supported upgrade paths.; Upgrade or retire confirmed vulnerable legacy builds where vendor guidance supports it..
