Unauthorized Access Attempt
Microsoft DirectShow, which is part of Microsoft DirectX, could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper parsing of WAV and AVI files. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted WAV or AVI file, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system with the privileges of the victim.
Apply the appropriate patch for your system, as listed in the latest Microsoft Security Bulletin. See References.
