A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in Mini-Stream RM-MP3 Converter version 3.1.2.1. The vulnerability is triggered when the application processes a .pls file containing an overly long URL, resulting in a buffer overflow on the stack. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code within the context of the user running the application.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module targeting a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2010-5081) in Mini-Stream RM-MP3 Converter v3.1.2.1 for Windows. The exploit works by generating a malicious PLS playlist file ('msf.pls' by default) containing a specially crafted 'http://' entry followed by a large buffer, a return address, and a customizable payload. When a victim opens this file with the vulnerable application, the overflow is triggered, allowing arbitrary code execution. The module is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's FILEFORMAT exploit mixin. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the generated file itself. The exploit is operational, allowing for custom payloads, but requires user interaction (the victim must open the file).
