Product Link: http://www.axis.com/techsup/software/acc/index.htm ====================================================================== 4) Description of Vulnerability Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in AXIS Camera Control, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the CamImage.CamImage.1 ActiveX control (AxisCamControl.ocx) and can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by assigning an overly long string to the "image_pan_tilt" property. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but requires that the user is tricked into visiting and clicking a malicious web page. ====================================================================== 5) Solution The vendor recommends removing the ActiveX control and using AXIS Media Control as a replacement. ====================================================================== 6) Time Table 09/01/2009 - Vendor notified. 09/01/2009 - Vendor response. 23/01/2009 - Public disclosure. ====================================================================== 7) Credits Discovered by Alin Rad Pop, Secunia Research. ====================================================================== 8) References The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned CVE-2008-5260 for the vulnerability. ====================================================================== 9) About Secunia Secunia offers vulnerability management solutions to corporate customers with verified and reliable vulnerability intelligence relevant to their specific system configuration: http://secunia.com/advisories/business_solutions/ Secunia also provides a publicly accessible and comprehensive advisory database as a service to the security community and private individuals, who are interested in or concerned about IT-security. http://secunia.com/advisories/ Secunia believes that it is important to support the community and to do active vulnerability research in order to aid improving the security and reliability of software in general: http://secunia.com/secunia_research/ Secunia regularly hires new skilled team members.
