Title: Novell Client ActiveX Control 'nwsetup.dll' Unspecified Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Novell Client for Windows allows users to access Novell services from remote computers.
The Novell Client ActiveX control is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability because of an unspecified error. This issue affects the 'nwsetup.dll' library file. The vulnerable control is identified by the following CLSIDs:
158CD9E8-E195-4E82-9A78-0CF6B86B3629
