Overview:
RealPlayer is an application for playing various media formats,
developed by RealNetworks Inc. For more information, visit
http://www.real.com/.
Details:
There are multiple vulnerabilities found in swfformat.dll.
A carefully crafted .swf file may execute arbitrary code or crash the
RealPlayer.
By persuading a user to access a specially crafted SWF file with RealPlayer,
a remote attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code.
And also, these vulnerabilities can be triggered remotely through ActiveX
in IE.
By setting the size of SWF files to a value smaller than the actual size,
you can trigger one of the vulnerabilities.
Actually, there are multiple holes that have been fixed in swfformat.dll.

No PoC will be released for this.
