CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Intuit QuickBooks Online Edition ActiveX Control
http://secunia.com/product/15608/

DESCRIPTION:
Will Dormann has reported some vulnerabilities in Intuit QuickBooks
Online Edition ActiveX control, which can be exploited by malicious
people to compromise a vulnerable system.

1) The insecure methods "httpGETToFile()" and "httpPOSTFromFile()" in
the QuickBooks Online Edition ActiveX can be exploited to download or
upload files in arbitrary locations.

2) Unspecified boundary errors exist in the QuickBooks Online Edition
ActiveX control, which can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer
overflows.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but
requires e.g. that a user is tricked into viewing a malicious web
page.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 9. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 10.

Set the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX controls.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
