control distributed with Macrovision's InstallShield.

The installed version of that control reportedly allows an attacker to
download arbitrary DLL files from a website to be executed as part of
a web install.  If a remote attacker can trick a user on the affected
host into visiting a specially crafted web page, this issue could be
leveraged to execute arbitrary code on the affected host subject to
the user's privileges." );
