This is a free version of a player. It plays both mp3 and video, is easy to use and I love mine. You cant rip or burn cd's though unless you upgrade to the Pro version.

Winamp 5.13:
Fixed: [in_mp3] Critical security flaw fixed.

Bundled v5.13 Included an MP3 of 'Twisted Transistor (Kupper's Elektro-tek Radio Edit)' by Korn.
Winamp Computer Name Handling Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Release Date: 2006-01-30
Last Update: 2006-01-31

Description:
ATmaCA has discovered a vulnerability in Winamp, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error during the handling of filenames including a computer name. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted playlist containing a filename starting with an overly long computer name (about 1040 bytes).

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code on a user's system when e.g. a malicious website is visited.

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 5.12. Other versions may also be affected.

NOTE: An exploit is publicly available.

Solution:Update to version 5.13.
