Média
| Vetor | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Hummingbird Xweb ActiveX Control versions 13.0 and earlier
Description
The issue is related to a stack-based buffer overflow in the Hummingbird.XWebHostCtrl.1 ActiveX control, specifically in the hclxweb.dll file. This occurs when a long
PlainTextPassword property is provided, potentially allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. It is noted that code execution might not be possible in version 13.0.Recommendations
For Hummingbird Xweb ActiveX Control versions 13.0 and earlier, consider disabling the
PlainTextPassword property as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the hclxweb.dll file to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploit
