PROMOTIC ActiveX Control 'GetPromoticSite' Method Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

PROMOTIC ActiveX control is prone to a remote code-execution 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 (typically Internet Explorer) using the ActiveX control. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial-of-service conditions.

PROMOTIC 8.1.4 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
