DESCRIPTION:
Krystian Kloskowski has reported a vulnerability in CA BrightStor
ARCserve Backup, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the
"AddColumn()" method within the "ListCtrl" ActiveX control
(ListCtrl.ocx), which can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer
overflow via an overly long argument passed to the affected method.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code e.g. when
a user visits a malicious web page.

The vulnerability is reported in version r11.5. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Set the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX control.
