CVE-2009-0194: The domain-locking implementation in the GARMINAXCONTROL.GarminAxControl_t.1 ActiveX control in npGarmin.dl...

The domain-locking implementation in the GARMINAXCONTROL.GarminAxControl_t.1 ActiveX control in npGarmin.dll in the Garmin Communicator Plug-In 2.6.4.0 does not properly enforce the restrictions that (1) download and (2) upload requests come from a web site specified by the user, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or reconfigure Garmin GPS devices via unspecified vectors related to a "synchronisation error."

Security readout for executives and security teams

A flaw in Garmin Communicator Plug-In 2.6.4.0’s ActiveX control could let a malicious website bypass intended site restrictions. If a vulnerable browser loads the control, an attacker may access sensitive GPS/device information or alter device configuration. Exposure is mainly legacy Windows/browser environments where this old plug-in remains installed. Likely limited to systems with Garmin Communicator Plug-In 2.6.4.0 and browser support for the affected ActiveX control. Modern environments are less likely exposed unless legacy browser/plugin dependencies remain. Treat as a targeted legacy-technology cleanup item. It is not listed as known exploited in the provided sources, but remaining installations could expose sensitive device data or allow unwanted GPS reconfiguration from web content. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for Garmin Communicator Plug-In 2.6.4.0 or npGarmin.dll.; Remove the legacy plug-in where business use is no longer required.; Disable ActiveX execution for untrusted sites in legacy browsers..
