CVE-2026-121517

Read full description

A vulnerability was detected in IrfanView 4.76.0.0 on Win64. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown functionality of the component TIFF Wang Annotation Handler. Performing a manipulation results in heap-based buffer overflow. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitation appears to be difficult. The exploit is now public and may be used. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. The vendor confirms: "[T]he TIF-Annotations option is OFF by default. Means, normal users are not affected ... the danger level for this is low".

Evidence context and dated references

Reality is general threat/review priority, combining observed exploitation, CVSS severity and fresh EPSS. Evidence confidence is separate. This is not calibrated risk, a victim count or an asset-specific assessment. A range reflects missing numeric inputs. Published 4 days ago. Exploitation evidence usually takes weeks to show up: a low reality score can mean there is no data yet, not that the flaw is mild.
