Heap-based buffer overflow in IrfanView before 4.33 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted RLE compressed bitmap file such as a DIB, RLE, or BMP image.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
