| VULNERABILITY DETAILS |
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute code on vulnerable installations of RealNetworks RealPlayer. User interaction is required in that a user must open a malicious file or visit a malicious web site. The specific flaw exists during the parsing of SIPR codec fields.
