CVE-2012-0926 is a critical arbitrary code execution vulnerability affecting RealNetworks RealPlayer 11.x, 14.x, and 15.x (before 15.02.71), and RealPlayer SP 1.0 through 1.1.5. The flaw resides in the RV10 codec's improper handling of height and width values, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into playing a specially crafted RealVideo stream. With a CVSS score of 9.3, this vulnerability is highly severe, requiring medium attack complexity but offering complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploit code or active exploitation has been observed, and community discussion is minimal, the potential impact remains significant for unpatched systems.
