Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the IBM Lotus Domino Web Access ActiveX control, as provided by inotes6.dll, inotes6w.dll, dwa7.dll, and dwa7w.dll, in Domino 6.x and 7.x allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated by an overflow from a long General_ServerName property value when calling the InstallBrowserHelperDll function in the Upload Module in the dwa7.dwa7.1 control in dwa7w.dll 7.0.34.1.
CVE-2007-4474
This CVE was only ever scored under CVSS v2.0. NVD CVSS v2.0 base 9.3 — v2 rates that HIGH (v2 bands: LOW 0.0–3.9 / MEDIUM 4.0–6.9 / HIGH 7.0–10.0; v2 has no CRITICAL band). Vector AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C. CVSS v2 is an older, coarser metric than v3.1/v4.0 (no Scope, no User Interaction, no Attack Requirements), so it is not directly comparable to a v3 or v4 score. NVD has never re-scored this record under v3. EPSS predicts 44.2% exploitation probability in the next 30 days, which is reflected in EG Risk but does not lift the v2 base. Confidence: LOW.
- Public exploit code is available (Metasploit, Exploit-DB (verified), epss top5pct, public exploit)
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

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. Distinct from the 0–10 EG Score (severity).
