SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/25788/

CRITICAL:
Highly critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
RKD Software Barcode ActiveX 4.x
http://secunia.com/product/14578/

DESCRIPTION:
Brian Mariani has discovered a vulnerability in RKD Software BarCode
ActiveX, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within the
ABarCode (BarCodeAx.dll) ActiveX control when handling the
"BeginPrint()" method. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based
buffer overflow by passing an overly-long string as argument to the
affected method.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 4.9.0.0. Other versions may
also be affected.

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