3) Technical details
============================

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Photoshop CC & Bridge CC. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must open a malicious file. By providing a malformed PNG file with an invalid uint32 Length, an attacker can cause an heap memory corruption. An attacker could leverage this to execute arbitrary code under the context of the application.
