Aurigma ImageUploader 4.1 ActiveX control buffer overflow
| aurigma-imageuploader41-bo (40152) |
Description:
The Aurigma ImageUploader 4.1 ActiveX control (ImageUploader4.ocx) is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow. By persuading a victim to visit a specially-crafted Web page that passes an overly long string to the Action property, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with the privileges of the victim or cause the victim's browser to crash.
