The issue is related to a heap-based buffer overflow in the
DrawImage function, which can be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This can be achieved through a crafted image file.Recommendations
For versions prior to 6.9.5-5, update to version 6.9.5-5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the
DrawImage function until a patch is applied. Avoid processing untrusted or specially crafted image files with the affected function to minimize the risk of exploitation.Fix
