Signature Detail

HTTP: SAP GUI TabOne ActiveX Control

This signature detects attempts to use unsafe ActiveX controls in SAP GUI TabOne. An attacker can create a malicious Web site containing Web pages with dangerous ActiveX controls, which if accessed by a victim, allows the attacker to gain control of the victim's client browser.

Extended Description

The SizerOne ActiveX control used in products by multiple vendors is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying it into an insufficiently sized memory buffer. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the application that uses the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed exploit attempts will result in denial-of-service conditions.
