    GDI Scan
    gdiscan.exe was written for Windows 2000 and higher. It scans the drive containing the Windows %system% directory and Looks for vulnerable versions of gdiplus.dll, sxs.dll, wsxs.dll, mso.dll.

    The scan starts upon execution. It will signal completion of scan in text box with "Done."

    Vulnerable versions of the .dll files are listed in RED.

    The path where a vulnerable .dll file is found is important. Remember that dlls are loaded in the following order (note: this is a VAST simplification):


    The directory from which the application loaded.
    The (application's) current directory.
    Windows 95/98: The Windows system directory (default: C:\Windows\system)
    Windows NT+: The 32-bit Windows system directory (default: C:\WinNT\System32)
    Windows NT+: The 16-bit Windows system directory (default: C:\WinNT\System)
    The Windows directory (default: C:\WinNT or C:\Windows)
    The directories that are listed in the PATH environment variable
