Description

By carefully crafting a corrupt FlashPix file, an attacker can trigger an integer overflow or buffer overflow which may lead to an application crash or arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the user. This update addresses the issue by performing additional validation of FlashPix files. Credit to Mike Price of McAfee AVERT Labs for reporting this issue.
