Stack-based buffer overflow in a certain ActiveX control in GLChat.ocx 2.5.1.32 in GlobalLink 2.7.0.8, as used in Ourgame GLWorld and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long first argument to the ConnectAndEnterRoom method, possibly involving the GLCHAT.GLChatCtrl.1 control, as originally exploited in the wild in October 2007. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information. NOTE: this was originally reported as a heap-based issue by some sources.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old browser ActiveX vulnerability that could let a remote attacker run code if a vulnerable GLChat control is loaded. The main business concern is legacy exposure: old Windows/Internet Explorer environments, gaming/chat software, or retained OCX controls. No current patch or active exploitation evidence is provided in the source bundle. Exposure is likely limited to legacy systems with GlobalLink 2.7.0.8, Ourgame GLWorld, or GLChat.ocx 2.5.1.32 registered or usable by Internet Explorer/ActiveX. Modern environments without this control are unlikely to be affected based on the supplied sources. Treat this as a legacy risk cleanup item with high impact if present. It is not broadly urgent unless vulnerable ActiveX controls remain in use, but any confirmed exposure should be removed or isolated because the historical impact is remote code execution. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for GLChat.ocx 2.5.1.32 and GlobalLink/Ourgame GLWorld installations.; Remove or disable the vulnerable ActiveX control where business use is not required.; Check vendor or legacy product guidance for any available update or removal instructions..
