Official Description
Race condition in Panda ActiveScan 5.53.00, and other versions before 5.54.01, allows remote attackers to cause memory corruption and execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors related to multiple invocations of the Analizar method in the ActiveScan.1 ActiveX control, which is not thread safe.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2006-5967 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
