FastStone Image Viewer TGA Image out-of-bounds write

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 8/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.23% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
  • Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 5.3, NVD 2.1.

Low priority for now. Update when a fix is released; follow the vendor's advisory.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

A flaw has been found in FastStone Image Viewer up to 8.3. The affected element is an unknown function of the component TGA Image Handler. Executing a manipulation can lead to out-of-bounds write. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.
