This vulnerability only affects Windows systems.
2) A boundary error within the decoding of BMP images can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on a user's system.
This vulnerability affects both Windows and Mac OS X systems. However, it has been fixed priorly in Security Update 2004-09-30 for Mac OS X.
