Registry Pro 'epRegPro.ocx' ActiveX Control Insecure Method And Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

Registry Pro 'epRegPro.ocx' ActiveX control is prone to multiple vulnerabilities, including an insecure-method issue and a buffer-overflow issue.

An attacker can exploit these issues to delete arbitrary registry keys and to execute arbitrary code in the context of an application running the control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.

NOTE: Further analysis indicates that the trial version of Registry Pro 2.2.7 is not marked 'safe for scripting', which makes it not vulnerable; versions installed with other installers may be marked safe. We will update this BID as more information emerges.
