The IDAutomation suite of ActiveX controls, including IDAutomationLinear6.dll, IDAutomationDMATRIX6.DLL, IDAutomationPDF417_6.dll, and IDAutomationAZTEC.dll, contain a vulnerability in the SaveBarCode and SaveEnhWMF methods. These methods allow remote attackers to specify arbitrary file paths as arguments, resulting in the ability to overwrite arbitrary files on the system where the control is instantiated. The affected versions are 1.6.0.6 for the Linear, Datamatrix, and PDF417 controls, and 1.7.1.0 for the Aztec control.
