The remote host contains the ‘BDSCANONLINE’ ActiveX control, used by the BitDefender Online Scanner, a web-based virus scanner.
The version of this control installed on the remote host fails to properly validate Unicode values passed to the ‘InitX’ function as a domain key. If a remote attacker can trick a user on the affected host into visiting a specially crafted web page, these issues could be leveraged to allocate arbitrary heap-based memory and overwrite memory within the Internet Explorer or host ActiveX process, which could result in execution of arbitrary code on the host subject to the user’s privileges.
