UPDATED An "extremely critical" security vulnerability has been discovered in AOL's Winamp digital media player, relating to the way the software handles filenames that include a computer name. An exploit has already surfaced for the flaw, which affects version 5 of the software.

By late Monday, Winamp developers had already released version 5.13 of the software, which plugs the security hole.


Update now ... ;)
