"A critical security flaw has been discovered in WinAmp that exploits the stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability allowing attacks from hackers. "
"The vulnerability has been reported in version 5.05 and confirmed in version 5.06. Prior versions may also be affected, according to Moore, and the flaw has not been fixed in Winamp version 5.06 contrary to vendor statements.
The best workaround for the hundred of thousands of users of the media player is to disassociate '.cda' and '.m3u' extensions from Winamp."
