"The version of Foxit Reader installed on the remote Windows host is
prior to 5.0.2.0718. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities :
- A flaw exists in how dynamic-link library (DLL) files
are located and loaded, specifically files dwmapi.dll,
dwrite.dll, and msdrm.dll. The application uses a fixed
path to search for these files, and the path can include
directories that may not be trusted or under the user's
control. An attacker can exploit this issue, via a
crafted Trojan horse DLL file injected into the search
path, to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the application or the user executing the application.
(CVE-2011-3691)
- A boundary error exists in the FoxitReaderOCX ActiveX
control in the OpenFile() method due to improper
sanitization of user-supplied input. An attacker can
exploit this, via an overly long string passed to the
'strFilePath' parameter, to execute arbitrary code.
