CVE-2019-25621Public exploit

Local application crash via keyboard input

Published Mar 23, 2026 · Updated Mar 23, 2026

Denial of service in Pixarra Pixel Studio 2.17 allows local users to crash the application through the keyboard interface. The published record does not identify the input-handling function or explain why arbitrary keyboard characters make the process hang or terminate. Reachability requires interaction with a running local instance, and successful exploitation interrupts only that Pixel Studio process.
