Chilkat HTTP 'ChilkatHttp.dll' ActiveX Control Insecure Method Vulnerabilities

Chilkat HTTP ActiveX Control is prone to multiple vulnerabilities that allow attackers to overwrite arbitrary files. These issues affect multiple CLSIDs associated with the control.

An attacker can exploit these issues by enticing an unsuspecting victim to view a malicious HTML page.

Successfully exploiting these issues will allow the attacker to corrupt and overwrite arbitrary files on the victim's computer in the context of the vulnerable application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer).

Chilkat HTTP ActiveX control 2.3 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
