Winamp users have been advised to update their Winamp to the latest version after a critical hole was found in the software. It allows a .xm file to cause a heap overflow which can allow a malicious hacker to run code on a victims machine.
Winamp has been downloaded millions of times and is installed on potentially millions of systems worldwide. It also supports more than 30 formats and has hundreds of plug-ins.
The main fear is that a victim may download an altered media file from a P2P network that may run malicious code on their system. The quick fix is to simply update your Winamp version to v5.03.
