Description:
Tri Huynh has reported a vulnerability in LANDesk Management Suite, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the ActiveX component "ircrboot.dll" in the function "SetClientAddress()". This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by supplying an overly long "bszAddr" argument to the vulnerable function via a malicious web page.

Successful exploitation may allow a malicious web site to execute arbitrary code on a user's system.

The vulnerability has been reported in version 7.0 and prior. Reportedly, version 8 has not been tested but may also be affected.
