2) Bugs
=======
------------------------------------------------
A] code execution in SVUIGrd.ocx Save/LoadObject
------------------------------------------------
The aStream number of SaveObject and LoadObject methods available in
SVUIGrd.ocx (2BBD45A5-28AE-11D1-ACAC-0800170967D9) is used directly as
function pointer:
02695b9d 8b00 mov eax,dword ptr [eax] ; controlled
02695b9f ff5004 call dword ptr [eax+4] ; execution
-----------------------------------------
B] write4 in SVUIGrd.ocx GetExtendedColor
-----------------------------------------
Through the GetExtendedColor method of SVUIGrd.ocx it's possible to
write a dword in an arbitrary memory location:
02198e36 8902 mov dword ptr [edx],eax ; controlled
---------------------------------------------------------------------
C] possible files corruption/injection in SVUIGrd.ocx Save/LoadObject
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The SaveObject allow to specify the name of the file to save while
LoadObject the one to load.
I have not performed additional research so for the moment the only
thing I have seen is the possibility of corrupting the files in the
system via directory traversal attacks.
I suspect that it's probable the possibility of writing custom content
but it has not been proved or verified.
-------------------------------------------
D] array overflow in aipgctl.ocx DeletePage
-------------------------------------------
Array overflow in the DeletePage method of the ActiveX component
aipgctl.ocx (083B40D3-CCBA-11D2-AFE0-00C04F7993D6):
10013852 8b0cb8 mov ecx,dword ptr [eax+edi*4]
10013855 85c9 test ecx,ecx
10013857 7407 je aipgctl+0x13860 (10013860)
10013859 8b11 mov edx,dword ptr [ecx]
1001385b 6a01 push 1
1001385d ff5204 call dword ptr [edx+4] ; execution
