Title: ACDSee 9.0 Photo Manager Multiple BMP Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

Severity: MODERATE

Description:

ACDSee 9.0 Photo Manager is an application that allows users to view images. The application is available for Microsoft Windows.

ACDSee 9.0 Photo Manager is prone to multiple denial-of-service vulnerabilities because it fails to properly handle malformed BMP image files.

Specifically, the application crashes when it processes BMP images containing excessively large width values. The application will close, trigger a Runtime Error, or trigger an access-violation exception.

Successfully exploiting these issues allows attackers to crash the affected application. Due to the nature of the issues, code execution may also be possible, but this has not been confirmed.

Version 9.0 of the application is affected; other versions may also be vulnerable.

Affected Products:

  • ACD Systems Inc ACDSee Photo Manager 9.0
