Has there been an official statement regarding whether using the GFL SDK for converting WMF files is subject to the vulnerability we're hearing about?
I saw a message in another forum that claimed XNView crashed when trying to load a tainted WMF. It is difficult to say whether that might have been due to the browsing dialog to find the file, or whether it was in the underlying GFL code. And then there is the question of whether that might have executed the malicious code embedded therein.

GFL SDK use windows API, so if the problem is fixed for windows API, it will be fixed for GFL SDK...sekakemp wrote:Has there been an official statement regarding whether using the GFL SDK for converting WMF files is subject to the vulnerability we're hearing about?
