DESCRIPTION:
GREG Linares has reported a vulnerability in BitDefender Online
Scanner, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a
user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error within
the OScan8.ocx / OScan81.ocx ActiveX control when handling arguments
passed to the "InitX()" method. This can be exploited to cause a
heap-based buffer overflow by prepending TWO "%" characters to the
argument of the AFFECTED method.

Successful exploitation allows execution of ARBITRARY code.

The vulnerability is reported in version 8.0. Other versions may also
be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to the latest version (OScan82.ocx).
