Description

Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in ComponentOne SizerOne, which can be exploited by malicious people to potentially compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the included Tab ActiveX control (c1sizer.ocx) when copying tab captions. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by e.g. adding tabs with overly long captions via the "AddTab()" method.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 8.0.20081.140 as included with ComponentOne Studio for ActiveX 2008. Other versions may also be affected.


Solution
The vulnerability is fixed in version 8.0.20081.142 of the ActiveX control.

Provided and/or discovered by
Carsten Eiram, Secunia Research.
