Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in IBM Lotus Notes, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
1) An error in the third-party WordPerfect file viewer (wp6sr.dll) can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by tricking a user into viewing a malicious WordPerfect document.
2) A boundary error in the third-party EML file viewer (emlsr.dll) can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into viewing a malicious EML file containing an overly long "Content-Type" string.
Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
