Description

The VeryPDF PDFView ActiveX control is prone to a heap buffer-overflow
because it fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied data before copying
it into an insufficiently sized memory buffer. An attacker can exploit this issue
to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application.
