185791 2003-10-22 19:53:00 Buffer Overrun in Windows ListBox and ComboBox Controls
Brett Moore of Security-Assessment.com discovered that a
vulnerability in Windows ListBox and ComboBox controls can result in
the execution of arbitrary code on the system running the vulnerable
control. The ListBox and ComboBox controls call a function located in
the user32.dll file. A specially crafted Windows message could pass
parameters to the function that the function can't correctly validate,
thereby causing a buffer overrun. Microsoft has released security
bulletin MS03-045, "Buffer Overrun in the ListBox and in the ComboBox
Control Could Allow Code Execution (824141)," which addresses this
vulnerability, and recommends that affected users immediately apply
the appropriate patch listed in the bulletin.

Happy patching, Babe.
