NOTE: the vendor disputes the severity and claimed vulnerability type of this issue, stating \"This PoC crashes VLC, indeed, but does nothing more... this is not an integer overflow error, but an uncaught exception and I doubt that it is exploitable. This uncaught exception makes VLC abort, not execute random code, on my Linux 64bits machine.\" A PoC posted by the original researcher shows signs of an attacker-controlled out-of-bounds read, but the affected instruction does not involve a register that directly influences control flow","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L","score":6.3},"cwes":["CWE-119","CWE-122","CWE-125"],"references":["http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/Jul/71","http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/Jul/77","http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/Jul/79","http://secunia.com/advisories/52956","http://secunia.com/blog/372/"],"products":["videolan:vlc_media_player"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T20:29:16.037019470+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2013-3245","score":0.02888,"percentile":0.86885,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
