A memory corruption vulnerability exists in the PNG png_palette_process functionality of Accusoft ImageGear 19.9. A specially crafted malformed file can lead to a heap buffer overflow. An attacker can provide malicious inputs to trigger this vulnerability.
The product copies an input buffer to an output buffer without verifying that the size of the input buffer is less than the size of the output buffer, leading to a buffer overflow.
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.
