Buffer overflow in the "RuFSI Utility Class" ActiveX control (aka "RuFSI Registry Information Class"), as used for the Symantec Security Check service, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long argument to CompareVersionStrings.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (8.70%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
