Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Oracle JInitiator, which could be exploited by remote attackers to take complete control of an affected system. These issues are caused by buffer overflow errors in the "beans.ocx" ActiveX control when processing malformed data, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into visiting a specially crafted web page.
