TITLE:
MySpace Uploader Control ActiveX Control "Action" Property Buffer
Overflow

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA28715

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/28715/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
MySpace Uploader Control 1.x
http://secunia.com/product/17406/

DESCRIPTION:
Elazar Broad has discovered a vulnerability in MySpace Uploader
Control, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the
MySpace.Uploader.4.1 ActiveX control (MySpaceUploader.ocx) when
handling strings assigned to the "Action" property. This can be
exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by assigning an
overly long (greater than 260 characters) string to the affected
property.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in MySpaceUploader.ocx version 1.0.0.5
and reported in version 1.0.0.4. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Set the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX control.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
