Description:
Tal zeltzer has reported a vulnerability in Trillian Basic, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing of PNG images. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted display image to a vulnerable client via e.g. the MSN protocol.
Successful exploitation can lead to execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 3.0. Other versions may also be affected.
