tag_summary = "This host has XnView installed and is prone to integer overflow
  vulnerability.

  Vulnerabilities Insight:
  The flaw is due to integer overflow when processing DICOM images with
  certain dimensions. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
  overflow by persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted DICOM image
  file.";

tag_impact = "Attackers can exploit this issue to cause buffer overflow and execute
  arbitrary code on the system with elevated privileges or cause the
  application to crash.
  Impact Level: System/Application";
tag_affected = "XnView versions prior to 1.97.2 on linux";
tag_solution = "Update to XnView version 1.97.2
  For updates refer to http://www.xnview.com/";
