Description:
Karol Wiesek has reported two vulnerabilities in Panda ActiveScan, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) A boundary error in the ActiveScan 2.0 AV Class ActiveX control (as2guiie.dll) when processing input supplied to the "Update()" method can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted web page.

2) A design error in the ActiveScan 2.0 AV Class ActiveX control allows installing arbitrary cabinet files on a user's system via the "Update()" method.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

According to the vendor, the vulnerabilities affect versions prior to version 1.02.00.

Update to version 1.02.00 or later.
