Description:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Orb, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an integer overflow when processing the number of dimensions in an array of variant types received as part of an RPC request. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by specifying an overly large number of array dimensions.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.00.1014. Other versions may be vulnerable.
