Argh, this should have gotten a 2010 ID.

Steve, does MITRE want to reassign, or just leave it as is?

Thanks.

Can I get CVE-identifier for this issue:

"VLC media player is vulnerable to a buffer overflow attack when
processing .mp3 file and its metadata. It fails to perform boundry
checks when creating a bookmark from the malicious media file
playing,
resulting in a crash, overwriting ECX register. While the evil .mp3
is
playing, you go Playback > Bookmarks > Manage bookmarks > Create."

Please use CVE-2011-1087

Thanks.
