Description:
Yag Kohha has reported a vulnerability in Microsoft Data Access Components, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the ADODB.Connection ActiveX control when handling the "Execute()" method. This can be exploited to cause a memory corruption by passing specially crafted parameters to the method.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code when a user e.g. visits a malicious website.
