Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Microsoft Access 2003/2007 (Database Software) and classified as very critical. This issue affects an unknown functionality in the library ACCWIZ.dll of the component ActiveX. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a code injection vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-94. The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

The Microsoft Access Wizard Controls in ACCWIZ.dll in Microsoft Office Access 2003 SP3 and 2007 SP1 and SP2 do not properly interact with the memory-allocation approach used by Internet Explorer during instantiation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a web site that references multiple ActiveX controls, as demonstrated by the ImexGrid and FieldList controls, aka "Access ActiveX Control Vulnerability."

The weakness was published 07/13/2010 as ZDI-10-117 (Website) via ZDI (Zero Day Initiative). The advisory is shared at zerodayinitiative.com. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2010-0814 since 03/02/2010. The attack may be initiated remotely. No form of authentication is needed for a successful exploitation. Technical details are known, but no exploit is available. The price for an exploit might be around USD $0-$5k at the moment (estimation calculated on 03/18/2021). MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1059 for this issue.
