Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Ultra Shareware Ultra Crypto Component up to 2.0.2007.801. Affected is an unknown part in the library cryptox.dll of the component ActiveX Control. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. This is going to have an impact on integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Absolute path traversal vulnerability in a certain ActiveX control in CryptoX.dll 2.0 and earlier in the Ultra Crypto Component allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a full pathname in the argument to the SaveToFile method.

The weakness was published 09/10/2007 by shinnai (Website). The advisory is available at xforce.iss.net. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2007-4902. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. Technical details and a public exploit are known. This vulnerability is assigned to T1006 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.

A public exploit has been developed by shinnai and been published immediately after the advisory. The exploit is shared for download at securityfocus.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept.
