DESCRIPTION:
rgod has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in Oracle AutoVue, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) The insecure "ExportEdaBom()" method within the
AUTOVUEX.AutoVueXCtrl.1 control (AutoVueX.ocx) can be exploited to
create or overwrite arbitrary files in the context of the currently
logged-on user.

2) The insecure "Export3DBom()" method within the
AUTOVUEX.AutoVueXCtrl.1 control (AutoVueX.ocx) can be exploited to
create or overwrite arbitrary files in the context of the currently
logged-on user.

3) The insecure "SaveViewStateToFile()" method within the
AUTOVUEX.AutoVueXCtrl.1 control (AutoVueX.ocx) can be exploited to
create or overwrite arbitrary files in the context of the currently
logged-on user.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities allows execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 20.0.2 build 7910
(AutoVueX.ocx 20.1.1.7910). Other versions may also be affected.

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