"The version of VLC media player installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 2.0.5. It is, therefore, 
affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - An exploitable denial of service vulnerability exists in the SHAddToRecentDocs function in VideoLAN VLC 
    media player before 2.0.5. Allow user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a 
    crafted file name that triggers an incorrect string-length calculation when the file is added to VLC. 
    (CVE-2012-5855).

  - Multiple buffer overflows in VideoLAN VLC media player before 2.0.5. Allow remote attackers to cause a 
    denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via vectors related to the (1) freetype renderer 
    and (2) HTML subtitle parser. (CVE-2013-1868).
 
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported 
version number.");
