IrfanView 4.33 XCF File Buffer Overflow
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in IrfanView 4.33 when processing XCF files. An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code by supplying a specially crafted XCF file. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing the 0x004ABABC value in the simple.xcf file, which can result in a stack-based buffer overflow. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary code by overwriting the EIP register with a pointer to the shellcode. The vulnerability has been tested on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 x64. The vulnerability has been fixed in the current release IrfanView 4.35.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of IrfanView 4.35 or later.
