Description
DataSourceControl in Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2 with Office installed allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large negative integer argument to the getDataMemberName method of a OWC11.DataSourceControl.11 object, which leads to an integer overflow and a null dereference.
