Descriptions

Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3 and Server 2003 SP2 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted OLE object in a file, aka "OLE Property Vulnerability."

Microsoft Windows XP (SP2 y SP3) y Server 2003 SP2 permiten a atacantes remotos ejecutar código a discrección a través de objetos OLE manipulados en un archivo, tambien conocido como "Vulnerabilidad de Propiedad OLE".

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Visio. 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 parsing of VST files. The issue lies in the failure to validate a length specified by the file before using it as a size in a memcpy. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
