TITLE:
Rediff Bol Exposure of Windows Address Book

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA16685

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/16685/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
Exposure of sensitive information

WHERE:
>From remote

SOFTWARE:
Rediff Bol 7.x
http://secunia.com/product/5661/

DESCRIPTION:
Gregory R. Panakkal has discovered a security issue in Rediff Bol,
which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive
information.

The problem is that the "FullAddressBook()" function in the
"Fetch.FetchContact.1" ActiveX control is insecurely exposed. This
can be exploited to disclose contacts in the Windows Address Book
(WAB).

Successful exploitation requires that the user is tricked into
visiting a malicious web site.

The security issue has been confirmed in version 7.0 build 208. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict use of ActiveX controls to trusted sites only.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Gregory R. Panakkal
