Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2 with Office installed

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large negative integer argument to the getDataMemberName method of a OWC11.DataSourceControl.11 object. This leads to an integer overflow and a null dereference.

Recommendations For Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2 with Office installed, consider avoiding the use of the getDataMemberName method with large negative integer arguments until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the input to the getDataMemberName method to prevent large negative integers from being passed.
