This signature detects the download of a maliciously crafted WinAmp playlist file. Attackers using WinAmp to open this file can execute arbitrary code.
A remote buffer overflow vulnerability affects the IN_CDDA.dll library of Nullsoft's Winamp. This issue is due to a failure of the application to properly validate the length of user-supplied strings prior to copying them into finite process buffers. The issue would most likely be exposed through a malicious playlist designed to trigger the issue. An attacker may exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user that activated the vulnerable application.
