CA Vet Antivirus Library Remote Heap Overflow

Unread postby 'KotaGuy » May 23rd, 2005, 1:25 pm

"Computer Associates Vet library provides antivirus scan engine capabilities. Vet scan engines allow products to analyze various streams for malware. Vet is vulnerable to an integer wrap during the analysis of an OLE stream. The integer wrap causes an arbitrary heap overflow with no character restrictions allowing remote attackers control of the system(s) Vet is protecting."
