Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FastStone MaxView versions 3.0 through 3.1
Description The issue allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an application crash. This can be achieved via a malformed BMP image with a crafted biSize field in the BITMAPINFOHEADER section.
Recommendations For versions 3.0 and 3.1, consider avoiding the use of potentially malicious BMP images until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the opening of BMP images from untrusted sources to minimize the risk of exploitation.
