The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the processing of .AMHH files. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a user is enticed to open a specially crafted .AMHH file. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. The vulnerability is confirmed in version 4.04. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Do not open untrusted .AMHH files.
