1) Introduction
===============

As the name suggests, DivX Player is a Windows player for DivX files.
It is included by default in the DivX codec distribuited by
DivXNetworks.

2) Bug
======

The skins used by DivX Player are zip files containing all the needed
images and a script file.

When the player loads a skin, it unpacks the zip into a folder with the
same name of the DPS file located in the temporary system directory.

An attacker can overwrite the files on the victim&#39;s disk in which is
located the temporary folder (usually c:) using the classical directory
traversal path like:

..\..\..\..\windows\notepad.exe

Can be used both slash and backslash.

3) The Code
===========

It overwrites/creates the file c:\folder\divxplayerbug.txt

However creating the zip files to exploit the vulnerability is very
easy since you need only to modify the names of the files located in
the central directory of the zip file (the final part).
