A critical vulnerability was identified in multiple ZoneLabs products, which may be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands. This flaw is due to a heap overflow error in the Vet Antivirus engine (VetE.dll) when analyzing the OLE stream and processing malformed VBA macro object headers, which may be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by sending a specially crafted VBA project name record to a vulnerable application.
