S-160: MySpace Uploader 'MySpaceUploader.ocx' ActiveX Control Vulnerability
MySpace Uploader ActiveX control is prone to a buffer overflow vulnerability because the application fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. The risk is MEDIUM. Successfully exploiting this issue may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application using the ActiveX control (typically Internet Explorer). Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions.

XmGetTearOffControl(3X) 												   XmGetTearOffControl(3X)

NAME

       XmGetTearOffControl - A RowColumn function that obtains the widget ID for the tear-off control in a menu

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/RowColumn.h>

       Widget XmGetTearOffControl (menu)
	       Widget menu;

DESCRIPTION

       XmGetTearOffControl  provides  the  application	with the means for obtaining the widget ID of the internally created tear-off control in a
       tear-off menu.

       RowColumn creates a tear-off control for a  PulldownMenu  or  PopupMenu	when  the  XmNtearOffModel  resource  is  initialized  or  set	to
       XmTEAR_OFF_ENABLED. The tear-off control is a widget that appears as the first element in the menu. The user tears off the menu by means of
       mouse or keyboard events in the tear-off control.

       The tear-off control has Separator-like behavior. Once the application has obtained the widget ID of  the  tear-off  control,  it  can  set
       resources  to  specify  the appearance of the control. The application or user can also set these resources in a resource file by using the
       name of the control, which is "TearOffControl". For a list of the resources the application or user can set, see  XmRowColumn(3X).   Speci-
       fies the widget ID of the RowColumn PulldownMenu or PopupMenu

       For more information on tear-off menus and a complete definition of RowColumn and its associated resources, see XmRowColumn(3X).

RETURN VALUE

       Returns	the  widget ID for the tear-off control, or NULL if no tear-off control exists. An application should not assume that the returned
       widget will be of any particular class.
