CVE-2006-6539

Status: ModifiedHigh (10)—

Multiple buffer overflows in Winamp Web Interface (Wawi) 7.5.13 and earlier (1) allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via an (a) long username or a (b) crafted packet to the FindBasicAuth function in security.cpp, related to the /browse URI; and allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long path string in the (2) Browse, (3) CControl::Download, and (4) CControl::Load functions, related to the file parameter in the /dl URI. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
