A security vulnerability exists in an ActiveX control shipped with Windows Media Player 9 that when exploited could allow a remote attacker to view and manipulate metadata contained in the media library on the user's computer.
An ActiveX control included with Windows Media Player 9 Series allows Web page authors to create Web pages that can play media and provide a user interface by which the user can control playback. When a user visits a Web page with embedded media, the ActiveX control provides a user interface that allows the user to take such actions as pausing or rewinding the media.
