Descriptions

The tblinf32.dll (aka vstlbinf.dll) ActiveX control for Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, and 7 uses an incorrect IObjectsafety implementation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by requesting the HelpString property, involving a crafted DLL file argument to the TypeLibInfoFromFile function, which overwrites the HelpStringDll property to call the DLLGetDocumentation function in another DLL file, aka "ActiveX Object Vulnerability."

El control ActiveX de la biblioteca tblinf32.dll (también conocida como vstlbinf.dll) para Internet Explorer versiones 5.01, 6 SP1 y 7 utiliza una implementación IObjectsafety inapropiada, que permite a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario mediante peticiones a la propiedad HelpString, que involucra un argumento de archivo DLL elaborado para la función TypeLibInfoFromFile, que sobrescribe la propiedad HelpStringDll para llamar a la función DLLGetDocumentation en otro archivo DLL, también se conoce como "ActiveX Object Vulnerability."
