A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 and Enterprise Edition 6.0 SP6. This vulnerability allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by providing a specially crafted Visual Basic project (vbp) file containing an excessively long Reference line, particularly during the VBP_Open and OLE processes. While the potential for exploitation is limited, this issue poses a risk to the integrity and security of systems utilizing the affected software.
Exploit Proof of Concept (PoC)
PoC code is written by security researchers to demonstrate the vulnerability can be exploited. PoC code is also a key component for weaponization which could lead to ransomware.
