Vulnerable Systems:
* VLC media player 0.9.4 down to 0.9.0
The user should refrain from opening files from untrusted third parties or accessing untrusted remote sites (or disable the VLC browser plugins), until the patch is applied.
Alternatively, the TY demux plugin (libty_plugin.*) can be removed manually from the VLC plugin installation directory. This will prevent opening of TiVo files.
