Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
PDF-XChange Viewer and Viewer AX SDK versions prior to 2.5.322.8
Description
The issue arises from the mishandling of conversion from YCC to RGB color spaces, where calculations are based on 1 bit per component (bpc) instead of 8 bpc. This could potentially allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through a crafted PDF document.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.5.322.8, update to version 2.5.322.8 or later to resolve the issue.
