HTTP: CoolPlayer Playlist File Handling Buffer Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in CoolPlayer. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the user.
Extended Description
CoolPlayer is prone a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. The issue occurs when handling specially crafted M3U files. Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
