Solution
Currently, there are no known upgrades or patches to correct this issue. It is possible to correct the flaw by implementing the following workaround: set the kill-bit on the WebCamXMP ActiveX Control (CLSID {bf4c7b03-f381-4544-9a33-cb6dad2a87cd}). See Microsoft KB article 240797 for more details.
