Bugtraq id: 54138

ACDSee is one of the most popular graph watching tools.

The ACDsee Pro 5.1 (Build 137) has a memory corruption vulnerability. Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities allows attackers to run arbitrary code.

1) When copying the color from the cursor in The. CUR file, ID_ICO.apl is not verified. The heap buffer overflow is caused by the. CUR file containing the specially crafted "colorsimpant ant" field value.

2) When memory is allocated based on the value in the GIF image's Logical Screen Descriptor structure, there is an error in IDE_ACDStd.apl, causing heap memory corruption.

3) The ID_PICT.apl verification that is used as the specific byte value of the image content size fails. The heap buffer overflow is caused by a specially crafted. PCT file.

4) when decoding the run-length bitmap, IDE_ACDStd.apl, which is used as the value of a specific byte in the image content size, fails to be verified. The new. RLE file causes heap buffer overflow.
