A vulnerability has been identified in Webex Meeting Manager, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or take complete control of an affected system. This issue is caused by a buffer overflow error in the "atucfobj.dll" ActiveX control when handling an overly long argument passed to the "NewObject()" method, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into visiting a specially crafted web page.
