DESCRIPTION:
rgod has discovered a vulnerability in Oracle Hyperion Enterprise
Performance Management, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error within
arsqls24.dll when parsing database connection strings. This can be
exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a
user into opening a specially crafted Hyperion Interactive Reporting
Studio (.oce) file.

Successful exploitation requires that the victim has Hyperion
Interactive Reporting installed.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 11.1.2.1.0 ( arsqls24.dll
version 6.0.0.60).

SOLUTION:
Do not open untrusted .oce files.
