A vulnerability, which was classified as problematic, has been found in KMPlayer 4.2.2.73. This issue affects some unknown processing in the library SHFOLDER.dll. The manipulation leads to uncontrolled search path. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The identifier VDB-224633 was assigned to this vulnerability.

KMPlayer 4.2.2.31 allows a User Mode Write AV starting at utils!src_new+0x000000000014d6ee.

When processing subtitles format media file, KMPlayer version 2018.12.24.14 or lower doesn't check object size correctly, which leads to integer underflow then to memory out-of-bound read/write. An attacker can exploit this issue by enticing an unsuspecting user to open a malicious file.

KMPlayer 4.2.2.15 and earlier have a Heap Based Buffer Overflow Vulnerability. It could be exploited with a crafted FLV format file. The problem is that more frame data is copied to heap memory than the size specified in the frame header. This results in a memory corruption and remote code execution.

KMPlayer 4.2.2.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted NSV file.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in KMPlayer 3.2.0.19 allows local users to execute arbitrary code and conduct DLL hijacking attacks via a Trojan horse ehtrace.dll that is located in the current working directory.

Heap-based buffer overflow in KMPlayer 3.0.0.1441, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a playlist (.KPL) file with a long Title field.

Buffer overflow in KMplayer 2.9.4.1433 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via a long string in a subtitle (.srt) playlist file. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

KMPlayer 2.9.3.1210 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a .avi file with certain large "indx truck size" and nEntriesInuse values.
