The tblinf32.dll (aka vstlbinf.dll) ActiveX control for Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, and 7 uses an incorrect IObjectsafety implementation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by requesting the HelpString property, involving a crafted DLL file argument to the TypeLibInfoFromFile function, which overwrites the HelpStringDll property to call the DLLGetDocumentation function in another DLL file, aka "ActiveX Object Vulnerability."

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2007-2216 is an old Internet Explorer ActiveX code execution issue. A malicious web page could abuse the tblinf32.dll/vstlbinf.dll control to run attacker-controlled code on a vulnerable user’s workstation. Business urgency depends on whether legacy Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, or 7 remains in use. Exposure is most likely in legacy Windows environments that still allow Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, or 7 and vulnerable ActiveX controls. Modern browser fleets are unlikely to be directly exposed, but old line-of-business systems should be checked. Prioritize if the organization still operates legacy Internet Explorer or ActiveX-dependent systems. For modern managed endpoints, urgency is lower, but any unpatched legacy workstation could allow user-level compromise through malicious web content. Mitigation focus: Identify hosts still running affected Internet Explorer versions.; Review and apply Microsoft MS07-045 or successor vendor guidance.; Disable or restrict vulnerable ActiveX control use where patching is not possible..
