It occurs because the software does not properly validate user-supplied data, which can lead to incorrect handling of data types. An attacker can exploit this by tricking a user into opening a malicious file or visiting a malicious page, allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected process.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
