Subject: VideoLAN VLC Media Player <= 2.0.4 Crash Bug

poc: 

This crash will be triggered by a special file name.

we can rename the normal file name to make sure that the length of absolute path is a odd number.Then we add the file to the vlc player, it will crash. 

Reason:

When this program call the function SHAddToRecentDocs without a unicode parameter,it will crash.

This is because it will bypass the '\x00' at the end of string during the  calculations of the string's length using the 'lstrlenw'.

The windbg result:
(we can see the file path in the memory is not the unicode)
#(1100.158c): Access violation – code c0000005 (first chance)
