Currently unrated
What is CVE-2005-0944?
The Microsoft Jet DB engine is exposed to a vulnerability stemming from insufficient data validation. This flaw enables attackers to craft malicious MDB files that, when opened, could lead to arbitrary code execution under the context of the user running the Jet engine. By exploiting this vulnerability, an attacker can potentially gain unauthorized control over affected systems, making it crucial to apply security patches and validate the origin of MDB files routinely.
