This vulnerability could be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target machine, by enticing the user of IcoFX to open a specially crafted icon file. 4. *Vulnerable Packages* . IcoFX v2.5.0.0 for Windows. . Other versions are probably affected too, but they were not checked. 5. *Vendor Information, Solutions and Workarounds* There was no official answer from vendor after several attempts to report this vulnerability (see [Sec. 8]).

Contact vendor for further information. 6. *Credits* This vulnerability was discovered and researched by Marcos Accossatto from Core Exploit Writers Team. The publication of this advisory was coordinated by Fernando Miranda from Core Advisories Team. 7. *Technical Description / Proof of Concept Code* Below is shown the result of opening the maliciously crafted file 'CORE-2013-1107-icofx-poc.ico'[2] on Windows XP SP3 (EN).
