Description
Magix Musik Maker 16 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow due to improper handling of .mmm arrangement files. The vulnerability arises from an unsafe strcpy() operation that fails to validate input length, allowing attackers to overwrite the Structured Exception Handler (SEH). By crafting a malicious .mmm file, an attacker can trigger the overflow when the file is opened, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution. This vulnerability was remediated in version 17.

An exploit or proof of concept is public: anyone can try it against an unpatched system. The public collections list a Metasploit module for it. 4 references of the record are tagged as an exploit. CISA's SSVC rates its exploitation: a proof of concept is public.
