Multiple buffer overflows in Niek Albers CoolPlayer 216 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via (1) a playlist file with long song names, because of an overflow in the CPL_AddPrefixedFile function in CPI_Playlist.c; (2) a skin file with long button names, because of an overflow in the main_skin_check_ini_value function in skin.c; and (3) a skin file with long bitmap filenames, because of an overflow in the main_skin_open function in skin.c
