DESCRIPTION:
Will Dormann has reported some vulnerabilities in PhotoStockPlus
Uploader Tool ActiveX control, which can be exploited by malicious
people to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the
PhotoStockPlus Uploader Tool ActiveX control (PSPUploader.ocx) when
handling certain initialization parameters. These can be exploited to
cause stack-based buffer overflows when a user e.g. is tricked into
visiting a malicious website.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

Set the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX control.
