Description:
Will Dormann has reported some vulnerabilities in InstallShield InstallFromTheWeb, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to unspecified errors within the "InstallFromTheWeb" ActiveX Control (iftw.dll) and the plugin for Netscape-style browsers (npiftw32.dll), which can be exploited to cause buffer overflows.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code by e.g. tricking a user into visiting a malicious website.
