Buffer overflow in the Dart Communications PowerTCP ZIP Compression ActiveX control in DartZip.dll 1.8.5.3, when Internet Explorer 6 is used, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long first argument to the QuickZip function, a related issue to CVE-2007-2855.
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.
