DESCRIPTION:
FuzzMyApp has reported a vulnerability in XnView, which can be
exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error when processing a TIFF
image with JPEG compression. This can be exploited to cause
heap-based buffer overflow via specially crafted "ImageLength" and
"ImageWidth" header values.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code, but
requires tricking a user into opening a malicious file.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.98 and 1.99. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 1.99.1.
