DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in Adobe Pixel Bender Toolkit,
which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's
system.

The vulnerability is caused due to the application bundling a
vulnerable version of the Intel TBB library, which loads libraries
(e.g. tbbmalloc.dll) in an insecure manner and due to the
"sniffer_gpu.exe" utility loading libraries (e.g. d3d10.dll) in an
insecure manner. This can be exploited to load arbitrary libraries by
tricking a user into e.g. opening a PBK file located on a remote
WebDAV or SMB share.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

For more information:
SA42506

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.1.432154. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted files.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported in an exploit module for CORE IMPACT, Core Security
Technologies.
