Buffer overflow in the WebClient ActiveX control in Siemens Tecnomatix FactoryLink 6.6.1 (aka 6.6 SP1), 7.5.217 (aka 7.5 SP2), and 8.0.2.54 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in a parameter associated with the location URL.
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.
