Technical details
An integer overflow vulnerability exists in winicontopam's handling of ICO/CUR file dimensions. When width or height values exceed 32767, they wrap int16_t loop counters into negative values, causing out-of-bounds heap buffer access. The vulnerability is triggered by parsing a maliciously crafted icon file with no additional preconditions; exploitation may result in denial of service or code execution.
