Descriptions

ESRI ArcMap 9 and ArcGIS 10.0.2.3200 and earlier does not properly prompt users before executing embedded VBA macros, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary VBA code via a crafted map (.mxd) file.

ESRI ArcMap v9 y ArcGIS v10.0.2.3200 y anteriores no pregunta a los usuarios antes de antes de ejecutar macros VBA incrustados, lo que permite a usuarios remotos con la ayuda de usuarios locales ejecutar código de su elección a través de código VBA a través de fichero de mapas (.MXD) modificados a mano.

ESRI ArcMap suffers from an arbitrary code execution vulnerability when handling a specially crafted map file.
