VLC Media Player CVE-2019-5439 Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

VLC media player is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.

Attackers may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.

Versions prior to VLC media player 3.0.7 are vulnerable.
