description-logoDescription

This indicates an attempt to exploit a vulnerability in the Microsoft Graphics Device Interface plus (GDI+).
This vulnerability impacts on a variety of Microsoft operating systems and applications, including third-party programs. The problem is in the Graphics Device Interface plus (GDI+), which facilitates proper exhibition of two-dimensional graphics and special texts to video and printer drivers.
GDI+ contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in its handling of JPEG images. An attacker can exploit this through the use of a specially crafted image. If a user is tricked into processing a tainted image, the attacker can execute arbitrary code on the victim machine and can even compromise the entire system.
