"A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in VLC media player before 2.2.2. Allows remote attackers to 
cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted 3GP file, which triggers 
the freeing of arbitrary pointers.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
