VAR-200905-0313

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-10 22:40

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in the D-Link MPEG4 Viewer ActiveX Control (csviewer.ocx) 2.11.918.2006 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the (1) SetFilePath and (2) SetClientCookie methods. NOTE: the provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information. Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions. MPEG4 Viewer 2.11.918.2006 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. D-Link MPEG4 Viewer is an ActiveX control installed on the D-Link webcam client. The D-Link MPEG4 Viewer ActiveX control did not properly validate input passed to the SetFilePath() and SetClientCookie() methods. If a user is tricked into visiting a malicious webpage and sends a super-long input parameter to the above method, a heap overflow can be triggered, resulting in the execution of arbitrary instructions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
