CVE-2013-6932
CVSS v2.0
7.6
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
IrfanView versions prior to 4.37
Description
The issue arises from a buffer overflow when IrfanView handles a crafted file with a multibyte-character directory name in the Thumbnails window, specifically through the Thumbnail tooltips feature. This can lead to the execution of arbitrary code by user-assisted remote attackers.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 4.37, update to version 4.37 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of multibyte-character directory names in the Thumbnails window until the update is applied.
Fix
