DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been discovered in the Synactis ALL In-The-Box
ActiveX control, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to the All_In_The_Box.AllBox ActiveX
control (All_In_The_Box.ocx) providing the insecure "SaveDoc()"
method. This can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files on the
system via a filename terminated by a NULL byte.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in All_In_The_Box.ocx version 3.1.2.0.
Other versions may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Set the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX control.
