Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In October 2007

Heap-based buffer overflow in the Decomposer component in multiple Symantec products allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via multiple crafted CAB archives.

Integer signedness error in the NE2000 emulator in QEMU 0.8.2, as used in Xen and possibly other products, allows local users to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow via certain register values that bypass sanity checks, aka QEMU NE2000 "receive" integer signedness error. NOTE: this identifier was inadvertently used by some sources to cover multiple issues that were labeled "NE2000 network driver and the socket code," but separate identifiers have been created for the individual vulnerabilities since there are sometimes different fixes; see CVE-2007-5729 and CVE-2007-5730.

Kodak Image Viewer in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, and in some cases XP SP2 and Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted image files that trigger memory corruption, as demonstrated by a certain .tif (TIFF) file.

rpcrt4.dll (aka the RPC runtime library) in Microsoft Windows XP SP2, XP Professional x64 Edition, Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, Server 2003 x64 Edition and x64 Edition SP2, and Vista and Vista x64 Edition allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (RPCSS service stop and system restart) via an RPC request that uses NTLMSSP PACKET authentication with a zero-valued verification trailer signature, which triggers an invalid dereference. NOTE: this also affects Windows 2000 SP4, although the impact is an information leak.

Heap-based buffer overflow in RealNetworks RealPlayer 10.0, 10.1, and possibly 10.5, RealOne Player, and RealPlayer Enterprise allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an SWF (Flash) file with malformed record headers.

Heap-based buffer overflow in RealNetworks RealPlayer 8, 10, 10.1, and possibly 10.5; RealOne Player 1 and 2; and RealPlayer Enterprise allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a RAM (.ra or .ram) file with a large size value in the RA header.

Integer overflow in McAfee E-Business Server before 8.5.3 for Solaris, and before 8.1.2 for Linux, HP-UX, and AIX, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a large length value in an authentication packet, which results in a heap-based buffer overflow.

Multiple buffer overflows in the British Telecommunications Consumer webhelper ActiveX control before 2.0.0.8 in btwebcontrol.dll allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors.

Unspecified vulnerability in the linux_audit_record_event function in OpenSSH 4.3p2, as used on Fedora Core 6 and possibly other systems, allows remote attackers to write arbitrary characters to an audit log via a crafted username. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Buffer overflow in the IMAP service in IBM Lotus Domino before 6.5.6 FP2, and 7.x before 7.0.3, allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a long mailbox name.

Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the kavwebscan.CKAVWebScan ActiveX control (kavwebscan.dll) in Kaspersky Online Scanner before 5.0.98 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string specifiers in "various string formatting functions," which trigger heap-based buffer overflows.

The Decomposer component in multiple Symantec products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a certain value in the PACK_SIZE field of a RAR archive file header.

The eHCA driver in Linux kernel 2.6 before 2.6.22, when running on PowerPC, does not properly map userspace resources, which allows local users to read portions of physical address space.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to spoof the URL address bar and other "trust UI" components via unspecified vectors, a different issue than CVE-2007-1091 and CVE-2007-3826.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors involving memory corruption from an unhandled error.

The URL handling in Shell32.dll in the Windows shell in Microsoft Windows XP and Server 2003, with Internet Explorer 7 installed, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs via invalid "%" sequences in a mailto: or other URI handler, as demonstrated using mIRC, Outlook, Firefox, Adobe Reader, Skype, and other applications. NOTE: this issue might be related to other issues involving URL handlers in Windows systems, such as CVE-2007-3845. There also might be separate but closely related issues in the applications that are invoked by the handlers.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Outlook Express 6 and earlier, and Windows Mail for Vista, allows remote Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP) servers to execute arbitrary code via long NNTP responses that trigger memory corruption.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000 SP3, Word 2002 SP3, and Office 2004 for Mac allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed string in a Word file, aka "Word Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

The multiplayer engine in Wesnoth 1.2.x before 1.2.7 and 1.3.x before 1.3.9 allows remote servers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a long message with multibyte characters that can produce an invalid UTF-8 string after it is truncated, which triggers an uncaught exception, involving the truncate_message function in server/server.cpp. NOTE: this issue affects both clients and servers.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in account/verify.php in GForge 4.6b2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the confirm_hash parameter.

(1) xenbaked and (2) xenmon.py in Xen 3.1 and earlier allow local users to truncate arbitrary files via a symlink attack on /tmp/xenq-shm.

GNOME screensaver 2.20 in Ubuntu 7.10, when used with Compiz, does not properly reserve input focus, which allows attackers with physical access to take control of the session after entering an Alt-Tab sequence, a related issue to CVE-2007-3069.

The (1) hugetlb_vmtruncate_list and (2) hugetlb_vmtruncate functions in fs/hugetlbfs/inode.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.19-rc4 perform certain prio_tree calculations using HPAGE_SIZE instead of PAGE_SIZE units, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified vectors.

Buffer overflow in the TagAttributeListCopy function in nnotes.dll in IBM Lotus Notes before 7.0.3 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML email, related to duplicate RTF conversion when the recipient operates on this email.

The Trend Micro AntiVirus scan engine before 8.550-1001, as used in Trend Micro PC-Cillin Internet Security 2007, and Tmxpflt.sys 8.320.1004 and 8.500.0.1002, has weak permissions (Everyone:Write) for the \\.\Tmfilter device, which allows local users to send arbitrary content to the device via the IOCTL functionality. NOTE: this can be leveraged for privilege escalation by exploiting a buffer overflow in the handler for IOCTL 0xa0284403.
