DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered some vulnerabilities in ACDSee
products, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

1) An input validation error within ID_PSP.apl when processing PSP
image files can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow
via a specially crafted PSP image file.

2) An integer overflow error within ID_PSP.apl when processing PSP
image files can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow
via a specially crafted PSP image file.

3) An input validation error within AM_LHA.apl when processing LHA
archives can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflow via a
specially crafted LHA archive.

NOTE: The AM_LHA.apl plugin is not included in a default installation
of ACDSee Photo Editor.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities allows execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in ACDSee Photo Manager version 9.0
build 108, ACDSee Pro Photo Manager version 8.1 build 99, and ACDSee
Photo Editor version 4.0 build 195. Other versions may also be
affected.

SOLUTION:
Apply updates.

within the month.
