Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In February 2008

Heap-based buffer overflow in Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) Automation in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2, Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, Vista, Office 2004 for Mac, and Visual basic 6.0 SP6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted script request.

wkcvqd01.dll in Microsoft Works 6 File Converter, as used in Office 2003 SP2, Works 8.0, and Works Suite 2005, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a .wps file with crafted section length headers, aka "Microsoft Works File Converter Input Validation Vulnerability."

IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) Administration Server (DAS) 8 before Fix Pack 16 and 9 before Fix Pack 4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via modified pointer values in unspecified remote administration requests, which triggers memory corruption or other invalid memory access. NOTE: this might be the same issue as CVE-2008-0698.

The Linux kernel 2.6.9 before 2.6.9-67 in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 4 on Itanium (ia64) does not properly handle page faults during NUMA memory access, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via invalid arguments to set_mempolicy in an MPOL_BIND operation.

The Volume Manager Scheduler Service (aka VxSchedService.exe) in Symantec Veritas Storage Foundation 5.0 for Windows allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash or hang) via malformed packets.

Apache Tomcat 6.0.0 through 6.0.14, 5.5.0 through 5.5.25, and 4.1.0 through 4.1.36 does not properly handle (1) double quote (") characters or (2) %5C (encoded backslash) sequences in a cookie value, which might cause sensitive information such as session IDs to be leaked to remote attackers and enable session hijacking attacks. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-3385.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the activePDF Server service (aka APServer.exe) in activePDF Server 3.8.4 and 3.8.5.14, and possibly other versions before 3.8.6.16, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a packet with a size field that is less than the actual size of the data.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in SwiftView Viewer before 8.3.5, as used by SwiftView and SwiftSend, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors to the (1) svocx.ocx ActiveX control or the (2) npsview.dll plugin for Mozilla and Firefox.

Multiple buffer overflows in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.1.1 and earlier allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a PDF file with long arguments to unspecified JavaScript methods. NOTE: this issue might be subsumed by CVE-2008-0655.

Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.1.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PDF file that calls an insecure JavaScript method in the EScript.api plug-in. NOTE: this issue might be subsumed by CVE-2008-0655.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in Adobe Reader and Acrobat 8.1.1 and earlier allows local users to execute arbitrary code via a malicious Security Provider library in the reader's current working directory. NOTE: this issue might be subsumed by CVE-2008-0655.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in db2pd in IBM DB2 Universal Database (UDB) 8 before FixPak 16 and 9 before Fix Pack 4 allows local users to gain root privileges via a modified DB2INSTANCE environment variable that points to a malicious library. NOTE: this might be the same issue as CVE-2008-0697.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the PVATLCalendar.PVCalendar.1 ActiveX control in pvcalendar.ocx in the scheduler component in the Media Server in Symantec Backup Exec for Windows Server (BEWS) 11d 11.0.6235 and 11.0.7170, and 12.0 12.0.1364, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) _DOWText0, (2) _DOWText1, (3) _DOWText2, (4) _DOWText3, (5) _DOWText4, (6) _DOWText5, (7) _DOWText6, (8) _MonthText0, (9) _MonthText1, (10) _MonthText2, (11) _MonthText3, (12) _MonthText4, (13) _MonthText5, (14) _MonthText6, (15) _MonthText7, (16) _MonthText8, (17) _MonthText9, (18) _MonthText10, or (19) _MonthText11 property value when executing the Save method. NOTE: the vendor states "Authenticated user involvement required," but authentication is not needed to attack a client machine that loads this control.

The PVATLCalendar.PVCalendar.1 ActiveX control in pvcalendar.ocx in the scheduler component in the Media Server in Symantec Backup Exec for Windows Server (BEWS) 11d 11.0.6235 and 11.0.7170, and 12.0 12.0.1364, exposes the unsafe Save method, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash), or create or overwrite arbitrary files, via string values of the (1) _DOWText0, (2) _DOWText1, (3) _DOWText2, (4) _DOWText3, (5) _DOWText4, (6) _DOWText5, (7) _DOWText6, (8) _MonthText0, (9) _MonthText1, (10) _MonthText2, (11) _MonthText3, (12) _MonthText4, (13) _MonthText5, (14) _MonthText6, (15) _MonthText7, (16) _MonthText8, (17) _MonthText9, (18) _MonthText10, and (19) _MonthText11 properties. NOTE: the vendor states "Authenticated user involvement required," but authentication is not needed to attack a client machine that loads this control.

Use-after-free vulnerability in the Edge server in Adobe Flash Media Server 2 before 2.0.5, and Connect Enterprise Server 6 before SP3, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an unspecified sequence of Real Time Message Protocol (RTMP) requests.

Multiple integer overflows in the Edge server in Adobe Flash Media Server 2 before 2.0.5, and Connect Enterprise Server 6 before SP3, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Real Time Message Protocol (RTMP) message with a crafted integer field that is used for allocation.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the legacy mod_jk2 2.0.3-DEV and earlier Apache module allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long (1) Host header, or (2) Hostname within a Host header.

Apache Tomcat 5.5.11 through 5.5.25 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.15, when the native APR connector is used, does not properly handle an empty request to the SSL port, which allows remote attackers to trigger handling of "a duplicate copy of one of the recent requests," as demonstrated by using netcat to send the empty request.

MySQL Server 5.1.x before 5.1.23 and 6.0.x before 6.0.4 does not check the rights of the entity executing BINLOG, which allows remote authorized users to execute arbitrary BINLOG statements.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Lyris ListManager 8.x before 8.95d, 9.2 before 9.2c, and 9.3 before 9.3b allow remote attackers to (1) gain list administrator privileges or (2) access arbitrary mailing lists via unknown vectors related to modification of client-side information; and (3) allow remote authenticated administrators to modify other account data by creating "new accounts that collide with existing accounts."

Geert Moernaut LSrunasE 1.0 and Supercrypt 1.0 use the RC4 stream cipher without constructing a unique initialization vector (IV), which makes it easier for local users to obtain cleartext passwords.

Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in EMC RepliStor 6.2 SP2, and possibly earlier versions, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted compressed data.

Unspecified vulnerability in Adobe Flash Media Server 2 before 2.0.5, and Connect Enterprise Server 6 before SP3, allows remote attackers to "take control of the affected system" via unspecified vectors, a different issue than CVE-2007-6148 and CVE-2007-6149.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in Drake CMS 0.4.9 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the option parameter.

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in WebCalendar 1.1.6 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via (1) an event description, (2) the query string to pref.php, and (3) the adv parameter to search.php. NOTE: vector 1 requires user authentication.
