CVE-2006-6334

-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Citrix Presentation Server Client for
Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in
that the target must visit a malicious page.
The specific flaw resides in the SendChannelData function of the
ActiveX control Wfica.ocx (CLSID 238F6F83-B8B4-11CF-8771-00A024541EE3).
The function is prototyped as follows:
SendChannelData(ChannelName As String,
Data As String,
DataSize As Long,
DataType As ICAVCDataType)
Specifying an undersized buffer length as the 'DataSize' parameter and
supplying a large buffer as the 'Data' parameter results in an
exploitable heap corruption.
