The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the NCSViewManager.NCSView.1 (NCSView.dll) ActiveX control when processing certain unspecified methods or properties. These can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows when a user e.g. visits a malicious website. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code. SOLUTION: Update to NCSView.dll version 3.4.0.242 included in version 8.1 of ER Mapper ECW JPEG 2000 Plug-ins.
