===============
1) Introduction
===============


Zoom Player is a media player for Windows which supports many formats
through external filters.

======
2) Bug
======


Zoom Player is affected by an unicode buffer-overflow in the function
which builds the error messages.
The problem can be exploited for example through a malformed ZPL file
containing a http link to a file with PLS extension which will force
the program to use wsprintf for building the "Unable to play [%s]"
error message.
