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: Will Dormann, CERT/CC.
