DESCRIPTION:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in Autonomy KeyView,
which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

1) An error when processing Windows Write (WRI) files can be
exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow.

2) Some errors when processing unspecified file formats can be
exploited to corrupt memory. No further information is currently
available.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 10.13.1.
