Re: CVE request: VLC media player - DLL preloading vulnerability

We will have one CVE per vulnerable application.  Yes, it's going to be 
very painful.  Roughly, the rationale is: "the product does not protect 
against a common configuration/behavior in its environment."

Use CVE-2010-3124

Is this a distinct product outside of VLC, or is it just a different 
component / attack vector?
