La biblioteca gdiplus.dll en GDI en Microsoft Internet Explorer versión 6 SP1, Windows XP SP2 y SP3, Server 2003 SP1 y SP2, Vista Gold y SP1, Server 2008, Office XP SP3, Office 2003 SP2 y SP3, 2007 Microsoft Office System Gold y SP1, Visio 2002 SP2, PowerPoint Viewer 2003, Works versión 8, Digital Image Suite 2006, SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services SP2, SQL Server 2005 SP2, Report Viewer 2005 SP1 y 2008, y Forefront Client Security versión 1.0, permite a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario por medio de un archivo de imagen GIF malformado que contiene muchos marcadores de extensión para extensiones de control gráfico y etiquetas desconocidas posteriores, también se conoce como "GDI+ GIF Parsing Vulnerability."
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows XP, Server and Vista. User interaction is required in that a user must open a malicious image file or browse to a malicious website.
The specific flaws exist in the GDI+ subsystem when parsing maliciously crafted GIF files. By supplying a malformed graphic control extension an attacker can trigger an exploitable memory corruption condition. Successful exploitation can result in arbitrary code execution under the credentials of the currently logged in user.
