    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in VLC. Please review the

Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted media
      file using VLC, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with
      the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  
Workaround :
