DESCRIPTION:
0x58 has discovered a vulnerability in Virtual DJ, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when loading M3U
playlist files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
overflow via a specially crafted playlist file containing an overly
long file name (greater than 478 bytes).

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in trial version 5.0. Other versions
may also be affected.
