Original NVD Description

The Trend Micro HouseCall ActiveX control 6.51.0.1028 and 6.6.0.1278 in Housecall_ActiveX.dll allows remote attackers to download an arbitrary library file onto a client system via a "custom update server" argument. NOTE: this can be leveraged for code execution by writing to a Startup folder.
