Description
The Annotation Objects Extension ActiveX control in AnnotateX.dll in Quest InTrust 10.4.0.853 and earlier does not properly implement the Add method, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a memory address in the first argument, related to an "uninitialized pointer."
