Tango DropBox ActiveX Control Remote Heap Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Tango DropBox is prone to a remote heap-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized buffer.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of an application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions.
