    code or cause a denial of service (DEP violation and application crash) via a crafted FLV file.

  - An exploitable denial of service vulnerability exists in the picture_Release function in misc/picture.c 
    in VideoLAN VLC media player 2.1.5. Allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial 
    of service (write access violation) via a crafted M2V file. (CVE-2014-9598).");
