This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the ProShow Gold PSH File. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the affected application.
Photodex ProShow Gold is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. Successfully exploiting this issue may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions. Photodex ProShow Gold 4.0.2549 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
