# Exploit Title: Winamp 'in_midi' component heap overflow
# Date: 05/14/2011
# Author: Alexander Gavrun (http://0x1byte.blogspot.com/)
# Software Link: http://www.winamp.com/
# Version: 5.61
# Tested on: Windows 7

Vulnerability occur while parsing midi file with special crafted System Exclusive message type (event).

System exclusive message type, according with midi specification (http://www.gweep.net/~prefect/eng/reference/protocol/midispec.html), begins with 0xF0 and ends with 0xF7 byte (after the data bytes). Processing of this message type begins in sub_766410F function (dissasembled in_midi.dll of winamp v.5.61).
