Discussion

Adobe Photoshop CVE-2012-2028 Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Adobe Photoshop is prone to a heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary-checks on user-supplied data.

Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected application. Successful exploits will compromise the affected application and possibly the underlying computer. Failed exploit attempts may cause a denial-of-service condition.

Adobe Photoshop CS5.5 and prior versions are vulnerable.
