Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in HT Editor, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) An integer overflow in the ELF (Executable and Linking Format) parser can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted file.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

2) A boundary error in the PE (Portable Executable) parser can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted file.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
