VLC Media Player/Kodi/PopcornTime 'Red Chimera' < 2.2.5 Memory Corruption (PoC)
Author: SivertPL ([email protected])
CVE: CVE-2017-8311

Infamous VLC/Kodi/PopcornTime subtitle attack in libsubtitle_plugin.dll.
This is the Proof of Concept of the reverse engineered heap corruption vulnerability affecting JacoSUB parsing in VLC/Kodi/PopcornTime.
The crash is exploitable, but hard to exploit because of various environmental constraints such as threading/mitigations/scriptless.
I want to join a research team.
