**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
XnView version 1.70
NView version 4.51
**Description**
The issue is related to an untrusted search path vulnerability, specifically an RPATH vulnerability, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code. This can be achieved by placing a malicious library in the current working directory.
**Recommendations**
For XnView version 1.70, update to a version that fixes the RPATH vulnerability.
For NView version 4.51, update to a version that fixes the RPATH vulnerability.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the execution of libraries from untrusted sources in the current working directory until a patch is available.
