While playing around with ACDSee's "Photo Album"files (ais extension) i noticed a bug that seems to me like a buffer overflow. ACDSee's ais are build up like this: "[absolutepath]\filename.gif" "description" "[absolutepath]\some.gif" "mydog" "[absolutepath]\dunno.gif" "mycat" I filled one description up to 260 chars. Then i loaded the file in ACDSee. Nothing special.. But when i wanted to see the picture's properties the app just crashed. It seems that acdsee can't handle more than 256 chars in the description when displaying the propertie's dialog(or maybee i'm just an idiot ;D). Grab a sample Photoalbumfile at "http://skka.de/acdsee_bug.zip". The included gif has to be placed directly on "c:\" because acdsee only allows absolute paths in these files and i couldn't give any relative path to the gif.. :/ Otherwise the ais file will seem not to contain any pictures and you can't trigger the bug by selecting the pic's properties in the context menu. Maybee somebody finds out more..
