Discussion
RavWare RavFLIC ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
RavWare Flic ActiveX control RavFLIC is prone a buffer-overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.
Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
This issue affects RavFLIC 1.0.0.1; other versions may also be vulnerable.
