Microsoft Active Template Library (ATL) object code execution
| ms-atl-object-code-execution (52047) |  High Risk |
Description:
Microsoft Active Template Library (ATL) could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by an error in the ATL headers when handling object instantiation from data streams related to unsafe usage of OleLoadFromStream() function. By persuading a victim to visit a specially-crafted Web site that instantiates a vulnerable component or control using the IE browser, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on the system with the privileges of the victim.
