Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-042: Buffer Overflow in Windows Troubleshooter ActiveX Control Could Allow Code Execution (826232) | |
|
||
| Time: 00:33 EST/05:33 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
A security vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Local Troubleshooter ActiveX control. The vulnerability exists because the ActiveX control (Tshoot.ocx) contains a buffer overflow that could allow an attacker to run code of their choice on a users system. Because this control is marked "safe for scripting", an attacker could exploit this vulnerability by convincing a user to view a specially crafted HTML page that references this ActiveX control. The Microsoft Local Troubleshooter ActiveX control is installed as a default part of the operating system on Windows 2000. To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker would have to create a specially formed HTMLbased e-mail and send it to the user. Alternatively an attacker would have to host a malicious Web site that contained a Web page designed to exploit this vulnerability. | ||
