This signature detects attempts to use unsafe ActiveX controls in WinDVD 7. 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.
The IASystemInfo.dll ActiveX control of InterActual Player and CinePlayer is prone to buffer-overflow vulnerabilities. This software fails to sufficiently check boundaries of user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. InterActual Player version 2.60.12.0717 is vulnerable to these issues; other versions may also be affected. CinePlayer version 3.2 is vulnerable to these issues; other versions may also be affected.
