Description:
Core Security Technologies has reported a vulnerability in the Anzio Web Print Object (WePO) ActiveX component, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing the "mainurl" parameter. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a user into visiting a malicious website.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is reported in Anzio Web Print Object 3.2.19 and 3.2.24, Anzio Print Wizard Server Edition 3.2.19, and Anzio Print Wizard Personal Edition 3.2.19. Other versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Update to Anzio Web Print Object 3.2.30.
