Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
shinnai has discovered a vulnerability in NCTAudioEditor and NCTAudioStudio, which can be exploited by malicious people to overwrite arbitrary files.

The vulnerability is caused due to the NCTWMAFile2 (NCTWMAFile2.dll) ActiveX control including the insecure "CreateFile()" method, which creates a file specified as an argument. This can be exploited to overwrite and corrupt arbitrary files in the system in the context of the currently logged-on user.

The vulnerability is confirmed in both NCTAudioEditor and NCTAudioStudio version 2.7 including NCTWMAFile2.dll version 2.6.2.157. Other versions may also be affected.
