DESCRIPTION:
Gjoko Krstic has discovered a vulnerability in LEADTOOLS LEAD
RasterTwain ActiveX Control, which can be exploited by malicious
people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in
LtocxTwainu.dll when handling the value assigned to the "AppName"
property and can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow
via an overly long string.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 16.5. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Set the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX control.
