An advisory from the Security Focus website says that some
MP3 files played in either Windows Media or Real One can be
exploited to include javascript and other potentially
malicious code. Spammers and porn sites have found out how
to create and use such bogus mp3s, and have been seeding some
of the file sharing networks with them. Only the two players
mentioned are vulnerable; others such as Winamp will not
play the bogus files.
