Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in SwiftView Viewer before 8.3.5, as used by SwiftView and SwiftSend, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors to the (1) svocx.ocx ActiveX control or the (2) npsview.dll plugin for Mozilla and Firefox.
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.
