Descriptions

Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) Automation in Microsoft Windows XP SP3 does not properly allocate memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted RTF document, aka "OLE Automation Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."

Vinculación e incrustación de objetos (OLE) de Microsoft Windows XP SP3 no asignan correctamente la memoria, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de un elaborado documento RTF, alias "La automatización OLE vulnerabilidad de ejecución remota de código."

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the Microsoft Common Controls when handling RTF files. A specially crafted length can result in an integer overflow in a value that gets used as a length in a call to SysAllocStringLen. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
