IrfanView < 4.36 Multiple Vulnerabilities

high Nessus Plugin ID 68888

Language:

Synopsis

A graphic viewer installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote Windows host contains a version of IrfanView prior to version 4.36. It is, therefore, reportedly affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists when parsing ANI images. An attacker can exploit this issue with a specially crafted ANI file, potentially leading to arbitrary code execution.

- A flaw exists where DCX file headers are not properly sanitized, which could potentially lead to a denial of service.

- An integer overflow vulnerability exists in the FlashPix Plugin (Fpx.dll) when handling sections of Summary Information Property sets, which could lead to arbitrary code execution.

Solution

Upgrade to IrfanView version 4.36 or later.
