This signature detects attempts to use unsafe ActiveX control in Attachmate Reflection FTP client. An attacker can create a malicious Web site containing Web pages with dangerous ActiveX controls, which if accessed by a victim, allows the attacker to gain control of the victim's client browser.
The rftpcom.dll ActiveX control in Attachmate Reflection FTP Client before 14.1.429 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) and execute arbitrary code via vectors related to the (1) GetGlobalSettings or (2) GetSiteProperties3 methods, which triggers a dereference of an arbitrary memory address. NOTE: this issue was MERGED with CVE-2014-0606 because it is the same type of vulnerability, affecting the same set of versions, and discovered by the same researcher.
