Description:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Trend Micro HouseCall, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an implementation error within the HouseCall ActiveX control (Housecall_ActiveX.dll). This can be exploited to e.g. download and load an arbitrary library file by specifying a custom update server.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in versions 6.51.0.1028 and 6.6.0.1278. Other versions may also be affected.
