Absolute path traversal vulnerability in the EbCrypt.eb_c_PRNGenerator.1 ActiveX control in EBCRYPT.DLL 2.0.0.2087 and earlier in EB Design ebCrypt allows remote attackers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a full pathname in the argument to the SaveToFile method. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an older ActiveX vulnerability in EB Design ebCrypt. A vulnerable control can let a remote attacker create or overwrite files by supplying a full file path to its SaveToFile method. Business risk depends on whether legacy Windows/browser systems still have this control installed and allow ActiveX execution. Exposure is most likely in legacy environments with EB Design ebCrypt EBCRYPT.DLL installed, especially systems still using Internet Explorer-style ActiveX controls. The source bundle lists no reliable CPEs or vendor-maintained inventory data. Prioritize if legacy Windows or ActiveX-dependent business applications remain in use. If ebCrypt is absent, business urgency is low. If present on browsable workstations, treat it as legacy technology debt requiring containment and retirement planning. Mitigation focus: Check vendor or product-owner guidance for supported updates or replacements.; Remove EB Design ebCrypt where no current business dependency exists.; Disable unnecessary ActiveX controls through browser or endpoint policy..
