Summary
Animate versions 23.0.13, 24.0.10 and earlier are affected by a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. Exploitation requires user interaction, such as opening a malicious file.
Risk Assessment
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to take control of the user's system, potentially leading to data confidentiality and integrity breaches.
Recommendation
Upgrade Animate to the latest available version that includes a fix. Users should avoid opening untrusted files.
Other vulnerabilities in Animate
See all- CVE-2026-76191High
Animate is affected by a Code Injection vulnerability that could result in arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. A low-privileged attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code. Exploitation requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file. Scope is changed.
- CVE-2026-48350High
