VLC Media Player is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently handle user-supplied data.

Exploiting this issue can allow an attacker to crash the application, effectively denying service to the user.

VLC Media Player 0.8.6a is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
