A vulnerability has been identified in jetAudio, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands. This flaw is due to a buffer overflow error when creating the "tooltip" string using ID Tag information retrieved from an audio file (e.g. WMA), which could be exploited by attackers to compromise a vulnerable system by tricking a user into opening a WMA file with overly long ID Tag values (e.g. "Title", "Author", or "Album") when the sound card driver is disabled or not properly installed.
