Description:
Alex Wheeler has reported a vulnerability in various Computer Associates products, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow in the Vet Antivirus Engine (VetE.dll) when analysing OLE streams. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow via e.g. a specially crafted Microsoft Office document.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

* CA InoculateIT 6.0 (all platforms, including Notes/Exchange)
* eTrust Antivirus r6.0 (all platforms, including Notes/Exchange)
* eTrust Antivirus r7.0 (all platforms, including Notes/Exchange)
