Severity: HIGH

Description:

Computer Associates DSM is a desktop and server management suite.

Computer Associates DSM 'gui_cm_ctrls.ocx' ActiveX control is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability that occurs because the software fails to sufficiently validate function arguments used by the 'gui_cm_ctrls.ocx' ActiveX control.

The ActiveX control can be identified by the following CLSID:

E6239EB3-E0B0-46DA-A215-CFA9B3B740C5

Remote attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Successful exploits will compromise the application and possibly the underlying computer. Failed attacks will cause denial-of-service conditions.
