"The version of the IBM Access Support ActiveX control, used to support
IBM and Lenovo computer systems and installed on the remote Windows
host, reportedly contains a stack-based buffer overflow that can be
triggered by calling the 'GetXMLValue' method with an overly long

viewing a specially crafted HTML document, he can leverage this issue to
execute arbitrary code on the affected system subject to the user's
