The Windows remote host contains IBM’s AFP Viewer plug-in, which allows for viewing AFP (Advanced Function Presentation) documents from a web browser.
The version of the plug-in installed on the remote host reportedly contains a heap-based buffer overflow that can be triggered when processing a ‘SRC’ property with a string longer than 1023 characters.
If an attacker can trick a user on the affected host into visiting a specially crafted web page, this issue could be leveraged to execute arbitrary code on the affected system subject to the user’s privileges.
