Microsoft · Comctl32.Dll · CVE-2003-0897
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Windows XP
**Description**
The issue allows local users to execute arbitrary code by sending specific button control messages to privileged applications. This can be achieved by sending (1) `BCM GETTEXTMARGIN` or (2) `BCM SETTEXTMARGIN` button control messages.
**Recommendations**
For Windows XP, consider restricting access to privileged applications until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the `BCM GETTEXTMARGIN` and `BCM SETTEXTMARGIN` button control messages in applications that use the CommCtl32.dll library.
