CVE-2025-47749
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedV-SFT v6.2.5.0 and earlier contains an issue with free of pointer not at start of buffer in VS6EditData.dll!CWinFontInf::WinFontMsgCheck function. Opening specially crafted V7 or V8 files may lead to crash, information disclosure, and arbitrary code execution.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceV-SFT v6.2.5.0 and earlier contains a memory corruption vulnerability in VS6EditData.dll's CWinFontInf::WinFontMsgCheck function where the code attempts to free a pointer that is not at the start of an allocated buffer. Opening specially crafted V7 or V8 files triggers this improper memory deallocation, potentially allowing an attacker to corrupt heap metadata, cause crashes, leak sensitive memory contents, or achieve arbitrary code execution.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Identify V-SFT installation and versionCheck the installed version of Monitouch V Sft in the application directory or Windows Programs list. Common paths include C:\Program Files\Fujielectric\Monitouch V Sft\ or check Add/Remove Programs.Affected if The installed version is 6.0.1.0 through 6.2.5.0 inclusive (anything >= 6.0.1.0 and < 6.2.6.0)
-
Verify VS6EditData.dll presenceLocate the file VS6EditData.dll in the V-SFT installation directory. This DLL contains the vulnerable CWinFontInf::WinFontMsgCheck function.Affected if VS6EditData.dll exists in the V-SFT installation folder and its version matches the affected V-SFT versions
-
Check for V7 and V8 file handling capabilityDetermine if the V-SFT installation includes support for opening V7 or V8 project files. This is typically the default functionality in affected versions.Affected if The system can open or has recently opened V7 or V8 format project files using V-SFT
-
Confirm version is below fixed releaseCompare your installed V-SFT version number to the vendor's fixed version 6.2.6.0. Any version below 6.2.6.0 within the 6.0.x.x to 6.2.5.x range is affected.Affected if The installed version is lower than 6.2.6.0 and was released after 6.0.1.0
You are affected if V-SFT version 6.0.1.0 through 6.2.5.0 is installed and the software is used to open V7 or V8 project files.

dbcve · scoped6.2.6.0
Avoid opening untrusted or specially crafted V7 or V8 files in vulnerable V-SFT versions. Apply vendor patches when released. Consider running V-SFT in a sandboxed or isolated environment as a defense-in-depth measure.
V-SFT version 6.2.6.0 or later
- 1. Backup all existing V-SFT projects and configuration files before proceeding with the upgrade.
- 2. Navigate to the official Monitouch vendor website (monitouch.fujielectric.com) or contact authorized distributors to obtain V-SFT version 6.2.6.0 or later.
- 3. Uninstall the current vulnerable version of V-SFT from the system.
- 4. Install the downloaded fixed version (6.2.6.0 or later).
- 5. After installation, verify the version number matches the fixed release.
- 6. Re-open existing V7 or V8 project files to confirm normal functionality.
- 7. Ensure that any specially crafted or untrusted V7/V8 files are not opened until the upgrade is confirmed working.
