2X Client for RDP 10.1.1204 Download / Execute Vulnerabilit

`2X Client for RDP 10.1.1204 ClientSystem Class ActiveX Control  
TuxClientSystem.dll InstallClient() Download and Execute  
Vulnerability  
tested against: Microsoft Windows Vista SP2  
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 r2 sp2  
Internet Explorer 8  
vendor description:  
"2X Software is a global leader of desktop and application delivery,  
remote access and cloud computing solutions."  
2x homepage: http://www.2x.com/  
download url: http://www.2x.com/rdp-client/windows-linux-mac/downloadlinks/  
file tested: 2XClient.msi  
Background:  
the mentioned product installs an ActiveX control with the following  
settings:  
ProgID: TuxClientSystem.ClientSystem.1  
CLSID: {F5DF8D65-559D-4b75-8562-5302BD2F5F20}  
Binary path: C:\Program Files\2X\Client\TuxClientSystem.dll  
Implements IObjectSafety: True  
Safe for Scripting: True  
Safe for Initialization: ?  
According to the IObjectSafety interface this control is Safe  
for Scripting, then Internet Explorer will allow the scripting  
of this control.  
Vulnerability:  
...  
/* DISPID=2 */  
function InstallClient(  
/* VT_BSTR [8] [in] */ $msiPath,  
/* VT_I4 [3] */ $bFullInstallation  
)  
{  
/* method InstallClient */  
}  
...  
The first argument of this method accepts a file location on the  
internet. By supplying the url of a .msi installer, the mentioned  
control will download and execute the file without no user  
interaction other then browsing a web page.  
To demonstrate this vulnerability I modified an  
existing standalone msi installer through free availiable tools  
by replacing a CustomAction row with the following values:  
Action Type Source Target ExtendedType  
Run 226 SystemFolder.98CB24AD_52FB_DB5F_FF1F_C8B3B9A1E18E """cmd.exe"" /c start calc" <null>  
As attachment:  
9sg_2x.html - host on a web server and change the position of x.msi  
then browse this page
