DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in various RealNetworks
products, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

1) A boundary error within the processing of WAV files can be
exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted
WAV file.

2) A boundary error within the processing of SMIL files can be
exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a
specially crafted SMIL file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities allows execution
of arbitrary code.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches.

RealOne / RealPlayer for Windows and Mac:
Patches are available via the "Check for Update" feature.
