Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in RealNetworks RealPlayer before 17.0.4.61 on Windows, and Mac RealPlayer before 12.0.1.1738, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) version number or (2) encoding declaration in the XML declaration of an RMP file, a different issue than CVE-2013-6877.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2013-7260 is a RealPlayer flaw where a specially crafted RMP media metadata file could crash the application and potentially run attacker-controlled code. The source bundle identifies affected Windows and Mac RealPlayer versions before the vendor-fixed releases. This mainly matters where legacy RealPlayer remains installed or file associations still open untrusted RMP content. Exposure is most likely on legacy Windows endpoints running RealPlayer before 17.0.4.61 and Mac systems before 12.0.1.1738. Risk depends on whether users can open untrusted RMP files or content associated with RealPlayer. Prioritize remediation if RealPlayer is still present on managed endpoints, especially where users receive external files. This is old software with remote code execution impact and public exploit information, but no provided evidence of active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Windows RealPlayer to 17.0.4.61 or later.; Upgrade Mac RealPlayer to 12.0.1.1738 or later.; Remove RealPlayer where there is no business requirement..
