Security readout for executives and security teams
A flaw in a Symantec support ActiveX control shipped with Norton AntiVirus, Norton Internet Security, and Norton SystemWorks 2005/2006 could let a remote attacker obtain sensitive information if a user is tricked into participating. The public record does not identify the exact data exposed or attack vector. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Windows systems that still have the affected Symantec/Norton 2005 or 2006 products and their ActiveX support component installed or enabled. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless affected products are found on business-critical systems. Urgency rises if old Windows endpoints still allow ActiveX content or cannot be centrally managed. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for affected Norton/Symantec 2005 or 2006 products.; Check Symantec or Broadcom guidance for vendor-approved fixes or removal steps.; Retire unsupported legacy Norton/Symantec software where present..
