Hi @ll, the Ogg DirectShow filters available from <http://www.xiph.org/dshow/> are distributed with and install vulnerable MSVC++ 2008 runtime libraries MSVC?90.DLL.
See <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2467174> and <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2538243> resp. <http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS11-025.mspx> To make things worse, the vulnerable libraries are NOT installed as side-by-side components below %SystemRoot%\WinSxS\, but as private components in the applications directory, where they are not detected and not updated by tools like Windows Update Agent or Secunia PSI. Cf. <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835322> Additionally, the installer places the 64-bit components into the wrong path "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Xiph.org\OpenCodecs\x64\". Workaround: ~~~~~~~~~~~ Delete all MSVC?.DLL installed with the Ogg DirectShow filters in "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Xiph.org\OpenCodecs\" and "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Xiph.org\OpenCodecs\x64\".
