Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in Microsoft Visual Basic 6 allow user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) or execute arbitrary code via a Visual Basic Project (vbp) file with a long (1) Description or (2) Company Name (VersionCompanyName) field.
CVE-2007-2884
- No confirmed exploitation signals yet
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

- EG Score
- 0.0(none)
- EG Risk
- 0EG Risk 0/100
EG Risk is EchelonGraph's 0–100 priority score. It fuses intrinsic severity with real-world exploitation and automatability, so you can rank equal-severity CVEs and fix the most dangerous first. Higher = act sooner. It is distinct from the 0–10 EG Score, which measures severity.
