describe a security issue which allows to write to arbitrary files with
mozilla-plugin-vlc.


According to http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/485488/30/0/threaded , there
are two more unfixed security issues in vlc:

A] buffer-overflow in the handling of the subtitles
B] format string in the web interface




AFAIK there are no CVE ids for these issues yet.
