==============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.
