This module exploits a vulnerability in the Winamp media player. This flaw is triggered when an audio file path is specified, inside a playlist, that consists of a UNC path with a long computer name. This module delivers the playlist via the browser. This module has only been successfully tested on Winamp 5.11 and 5.12.

To display the available options, load the module within the Metasploit console and run the commands 'show options' or 'show advanced':
msf > use exploit/windows/browser/winamp_playlist_unc
msf exploit(winamp_playlist_unc) > show targets
...targets...
msf exploit(winamp_playlist_unc) > set TARGET < target-id >
msf exploit(winamp_playlist_unc) > show options
...show and set options...
msf exploit(winamp_playlist_unc) > exploit
Time is precious, so I don’t want to do something manually that I can automate. Leveraging the Metasploit Framework when automating any task keeps us from having to re-create the wheel as we can use the existing libraries and focus our efforts where it matters.
