Detailed Description |
A version of RealOne/RealPlayer which is older than version 6.0.12.1483 has been installed on the host. RealOne / RealPlayer is one of the most widely used products for internet media delivery for Microsoft Windows platforms and most Linux and Unix-based operating systems. RealPlayer versions 8, 10, 10.5, and Enterprise 1.x, RealOne Player versions 1 and 2, and Helix Player 10.0.x are vulnerable to multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities. By sending a malicious SWF or MBC file and persuading the user to open the file, the attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with the permissions of the user running the affected application.
* Note: This check requires an account with Guest or upper privileges which can access the registry of the remote host to scan. Absence of these condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
