What is CVE-2012-10051?

Photodex ProShow Producer version 5.0.3256 is susceptible to a stack-based buffer overflow that arises from improper validation of plugin load list files. When a maliciously crafted load file is placed in the installation directory, it can cause a buffer overflow during the application's startup sequence. For exploitation, an attacker requires local access to place the crafted file and user interaction to launch the application, thus invoking the vulnerable functionality.
