Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in ICONICS Dialog Wrapper Module ActiveX control. This affects the function domodal in the library dlgwrapper.dll of the component ActiveX Control. The manipulation of the argument Filter with an unknown input leads to a stack-based overflow vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-121. A stack-based buffer overflow condition is a condition where the buffer being overwritten is allocated on the stack (i.e., is a local variable or, rarely, a parameter to a function). This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

Stack-based buffer overflow in the DoModal function in the Dialog Wrapper Module ActiveX control (DlgWrapper.dll) before 8.4.166.0, as used by ICONICS OPC Enabled Gauge, Switch, and Vessel ActiveX, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) FileName or (2) Filter argument.

The weakness was released 01/03/2007 by Will Dormann as confirmed advisory (CERT.org). It is possible to read the advisory at kb.cert.org. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2006-6488. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Technical details and a public exploit are known.

A public exploit has been developed by Kevin Finisterre in Ruby and been published 2 years after the advisory. The exploit is shared for download at securityfocus.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept.

Upgrading to version 8.4.166.0 eliminates this vulnerability. Furthermore it is possible to detect and prevent this kind of attack with TippingPoint and the filter 6584.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (31228), Exploit-DB (6570), SecurityFocus (BID 21849†), OSVDB (32552†) and Secunia (SA23583†). Statistical analysis made it clear that VulDB provides the best quality for vulnerability data.
