Description
This strike exploits a use-before-initialization vulnerability in VLC Media Player.
The vulnerability arises when a memory allocation fails due to a large enough 'ChunkSize' flag, thus leaving the 'p_peek' pointer unintialized.
By exploiting this, an attacker could cause information leaks on the target system.
