The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:
Stack-based buffer overflow in the Intel Indeo41 codec for Windows Media Player in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, and Server 2003 SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted compressed video data in an IV41 stream in a media file, leading to many loop iterations, as demonstrated by data in an AVI file.
The weakness was disclosed 12/12/2009 by iDefense Labs (TippingPoint) with TippingPoint and the Zero Day Initiative as confirmed bulletin (Technet). The advisory is shared for download at microsoft.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2009-4310 since 12/12/2009. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. There are neither technical details nor an exploit publicly available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $5k-$25k (estimation calculated on 08/28/2021).
It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 43089 (MS KB955759: Security Enhancements for the Indeo Codec), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Windows. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 116751 (Microsoft Windows Indeo Codec Could Allow Remote Code Execution (KB954157)).
Applying a patch is able to eliminate this problem. The bugfix is ready for download at microsoft.com. A possible mitigation has been published before and not just after the disclosure of the vulnerability.
The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (54643), Tenable (43089), SecurityFocus (BID 37251†), OSVDB (60856†) and Secunia (SA37592†). The entries VDB-4070, VDB-51135, VDB-51134 and VDB-51133 are pretty similar.
