Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition 6 'vb6skit.dll' Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition 6 'vb6skit.dll' Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition 6 is prone to a stack-based buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate size checks on user-supplied input.

An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the vulnerable application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.

Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition 6 SP6 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
