Windows Camera Codec Pack Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Una Vulnerabilidad de Ejecución de Código Remota de Camera Codec Pack de Windows

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Microsoft Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the WindowsCodecsRaw module. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of user-supplied data, which can result in a write past the end of an allocated buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current process.

There is an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in WindowsCodecsRaw.dll in the COlympusE300LoadRaw::olympus_e300_load_raw function that can be triggered by parsing a crafted Olympus E300 raw image with Windows Imaging Component (WIC). The vulnerability has been reproduced on Windows 10 64-bit with the most recent patches applied.
