Arbitrary code execution via image parser buffer overwrite
Published Oct 7, 2022 · Updated Aug 4, 2024
Out-of-bounds write in Autodesk Image Processing in Autodesk products 2019 through 2022 allows attackers to execute code via crafted image files. The component writes beyond an allocated buffer while parsing attacker-controlled TIFF, PICT, TGA, or RLC data, corrupting memory that can redirect execution. Execution requires user interaction with a malicious file and runs in the security context of the affected desktop application.
