CVE-2018-18983
VT-Designer Version 2.1.7.31 is vulnerable by the program reading the contents of a file (which is already in memory) into another heap-based buffer, which may cause the program to crash or allow remote code execution.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (2.85%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
