Descriptions

AVG Anti-Virus does not properly interact with the processing of hcp:// URLs by the Microsoft Help and Support Center, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malware that is correctly detected by this product, but with a detection approach that occurs too late to stop the code execution.

AVG Anti-Virus no interactúa de forma correcta con el proceso de URLs hcp:// debido a la ayuda y centro de soporte de Microsoft, lo que hace que facilita a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de malware que se detecta correctamente por este producto, pero con una detección que ocurre demasiado tarde como para detener la ejecución de código.
