Stack-based buffer overflow in the SetClientInfo function in the CDDBControlAOL.CDDBAOLControl ActiveX control (cddbcontrol.dll), as used in America Online (AOL) 7.0 4114.563, 8.0 4129.230, and 9.0 Security Edition 4156.910, and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long ClientId argument.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
