Technical Details & Description:  
================================  
A local dll injection vulnerability has been discovered in the official Play TV software 1.25.1(build r123776).  
The issue allows local attackers to inject code to vulnerable dynamic link libraries to compromise the process   
or to gain higher system access privileges. Thus allows a local attacker to compromise the system process of   
the affected software to follow up with manipulations.
