HTTP: Adobe Multiple Products BMP Image Header Handling Buffer Overflow
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in multiple Adobe products. A successful attack can lead to a buffer overflow and arbitrary remote code execution within the context of the user.
Extended Description
Multiple Adobe products are prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because they fail to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input. The vulnerability occurs when handling malformed image header data in image files. Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of a user running one of the applications. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. The following products are vulnerable: Adobe Photoshop Album Starter 3.2 Adobe After Effects CS3 Other applications and versions may also be affected.
