An unspecified function in TextXtra.x32 in Adobe Shockwave Player before 11.5.9.615 does not properly reallocate a buffer when processing a DEMX chunk in a Director file, which allows remote attackers to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
