🗓️ 10 Jan 2011 00:00:00Reported by wsn1983Type

Newv SmartClient 1.1.0 ActiveX control multiple vulnerabilities in 'NewvCommon.ocx', allowing remote attackers to create/overwrite files, delete files, and execute code. Denial-of-service possible

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/45751/info

The Newv SmartClient ActiveX control is prone to multiple insecure-method vulnerabilities and a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability.

Successfully exploiting these issues allows remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary local files, to delete arbitrary files, and to execute arbitrary code. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.

Newv SmartClient 1.1.0.0 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
