Vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.

The weakness exists due to the failure to properly prevent the disclosure of file contents when processing certain MVG files. A remote attacker can create a specially crafted image, trick the victim into opening it, generate output files and obtain sensitive information.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability results in information disclosure on the vulnerable system.
