W32/Malformed.WMF
Analysis
A malformed WMF file can cause an infinite loop on the system causing the computer to stop responding. Such files can also be used to crash the system and facilitate heap memory corruption and arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation can facilitate remote code execution and local privilege escalation.
