Animate versions 23.0.8, 24.0.5 and earlier are affected by a Buffer Underwrite ('Buffer Underflow') vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. An attacker could leverage this vulnerability to manipulate memory in such a way that they could execute code under the privileges of the current user. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.
The product writes to a buffer using an index or pointer that references a memory location prior to the beginning of the buffer.
