The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing ".cct" files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted ".cct" file. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is confirmed in versions 4.3.1 and 5.0.7. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not open untrusted ".cct" files using the application.
