Overview
CVE-2011-0027 is a known-severity vulnerability affecting microsoft data_access_components. It was published on January 12, 2011.
Technical Description
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 SP1 and SP2, and Windows Data Access Components (WDAC) 6.0, does not properly validate memory allocation for internal data structures, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, possibly via a large CacheSize property that triggers an integer wrap and a buffer overflow, aka "ADO Record Memory Vulnerability." NOTE: this might be a duplicate of CVE-2010-1117 or CVE-2010-1118.
Remediation
Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from microsoft. Update data_access_components to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
