DESCRIPTION:
Krystian Kloskowski has discovered a vulnerability in Download
Accelerator Plus, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when verifying
URLs within a .m3u file. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based
buffer overflow when a user is tricked into verifying an overly long
URL in a specially crafted .m3u file.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 8.6.6.3 (DAP.exe) and
7.0.1.3 (DAP.exe). Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not import .m3u files from untrusted sources.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Krystian Kloskowski (h07)

CHANGELOG:
2008-07-09: Added version 7.x to list of affected products.
