This signature detects attempts to use unsafe ActiveX controls in SAP GUI WebViewer3D. 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.
SAP AG SAPgui is prone to a remote stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of an application that uses the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. Versions prior to SAPgui 7.10 Patch Level 9 are vulnerable.
