Impact
This vulnerability is an in the PSD parser component of FastStone Image Viewer v8.3. When the parser processes a specially crafted PSD file, the overflow allows an attacker to overwrite memory locations that can lead to arbitrary code execution or crash the application.
Affected Systems
Only FastStone Image Viewer v8.3 is known to contain the flaw. The affected component is the PSD parser used to read Photoshop PSD files.
Risk and Exploitability
Because the exploit requires a user to open a malicious PSD file, the risk is significant for machines that may view untrusted images. The CVSS score of 7.5 indicates high severity, while the lack of an EPSS score or KEV listing does not diminish the potential for exploitation. Official patch information is not available, but the vulnerability can be mitigated by updating the application or restricting file processing.
