Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Adobe Form Designer and Form Client, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within multiple ActiveX controls (FileDlg.dll, SvrCopy.dll) and can be exploited to cause buffer overflows when a user e.g. is tricked into visiting a malicious website.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerabilities affect Adobe Form Designer 5.0 and Adobe Form Client 5.0.
