|
|
| The buffer overflow occurs during the processing of the Yahoo! Messenger URI handler (ymsgr:). This URI handler is installed at the system level for applications that use the underlying operating system when processesing URIs (such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator 6, Microsoft Outlook, or the command shell). A URI can be sent by another Yahoo! Messenger user in a message, embedded in a web site, or sent in an HTML-renderable email message. |
