[News] New Flaw In Microsoft Windows Media Player

Microsoft Windows Media Player MIDI File Format Handling Denial of Service
Vulnerability

,----[ Quote ]
| A vulnerabilitiy has been identified in Microsoft Windows Media Player,
| which could be exploited by attackers to cause a denial of service.
| This issue is due to a division by zero error when handling a
| specially crafted MIDI file with a header chunk containing malformed
| fields (i.e. number of tracks and delta time), which could be
| exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application via a
| specially crafted file.
