Mcafee : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, (Code Execution) CVSS score >= 8

A DLL hijacking vulnerability in the MA Smart Installer for Windows prior to 5.7.7, which allows local users to execute arbitrary code and obtain higher privileges via careful placement of a malicious DLL into the folder from where the Smart installer is being executed.

An uncontrolled search path vulnerability in McAfee Consumer Product Removal Tool prior to version 10.4.128 could allow a local attacker to perform a sideloading attack by using a specific file name. This could result in the user gaining elevated permissions and being able to execute arbitrary code as there were insufficient checks on the executable being signed by McAfee.

Improper access control vulnerability in the repair process for McAfee Agent for Windows prior to 5.7.4 could allow a local attacker to perform a DLL preloading attack using unsigned DLLs. This would result in elevation of privileges and the ability to execute arbitrary code as the system user, through not correctly protecting a temporary directory used in the repair process and not checking the DLL signature.

A buffer overflow vulnerability in McAfee Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Discover prior to 11.6.100 allows an attacker in the same network as the DLP Discover to execute arbitrary code through placing carefully constructed Ami Pro (.sam) files onto a machine and having DLP Discover scan it, leading to remote code execution with elevated privileges. This is caused by the destination buffer being of fixed size and incorrect checks being made on the source size.

A buffer overflow vulnerability in McAfee Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Endpoint for Windows prior to 11.6.200 allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges through placing carefully constructed Ami Pro (.sam) files onto the local system and triggering a DLP Endpoint scan through accessing a file. This is caused by the destination buffer being of fixed size and incorrect checks being made on the source size.

A DLL sideloading vulnerability in McAfee Agent for Windows prior to 5.7.4 could allow a local user to perform a DLL sideloading attack with an unsigned DLL with a specific name and in a specific location. This would result in the user gaining elevated permissions and the ability to execute arbitrary code as the system user, through not checking the DLL signature.

Arbitrary Process Execution vulnerability in McAfee Total Protection (MTP) prior to 16.0.30 allows a local user to gain elevated privileges and execute arbitrary code bypassing MTP self-defense.

SQL injection vulnerability in Data Loss Protection (DLP) ePO extension 11.8.x prior to 11.8.100, 11.7.x prior to 11.7.101, and 11.6.401 allows a remote authenticated attacker to inject unfiltered SQL into the DLP part of the ePO database. This could lead to remote code execution on the ePO server with privilege escalation.

Remote Code Execution vulnerability in the web interface in McAfee Web Advisor (WA) 8.0.34745 and earlier allows remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code via a cross site scripting attack.

Command Injection vulnerability in McAfee Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) prior to 11.2.0 and prior to 10.4.0 allows authenticated user to execute arbitrary code via specially crafted parameters.

Command Injection vulnerability in McAfee Enterprise Security Manager (ESM) prior to 11.2.0 and prior to 10.4.0 allows authenticated user to execute arbitrary code via specially crafted parameters.

TunnelBear 3.2.0.6 for Windows suffers from a SYSTEM privilege escalation vulnerability through the "TunnelBearMaintenance" service. This service establishes a NetNamedPipe endpoint that allows arbitrary installed applications to connect and call publicly exposed methods. The "OpenVPNConnect" method accepts a server list argument that provides attacker control of the OpenVPN command line. An attacker can specify a dynamic library plugin that should run for every new VPN connection attempt. This plugin will execute code in the context of the SYSTEM user.

Use After Free in Remote logging (which is disabled by default) in McAfee McAfee Agent (MA) 5.x prior to 5.6.0 allows remote unauthenticated attackers to cause a Denial of Service and potentially a remote code execution via a specially crafted HTTP header sent to the logging service.

Authentication Bypass vulnerability in the administrative user interface in McAfee Web Gateway 7.8.1.0 through 7.8.1.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via Java management extensions (JMX).

Infrastructure-based foot printing vulnerability in the web interface in McAfee Network Security Management (NSM) before 8.2.7.42.2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via the server banner leaking potentially sensitive or security relevant information.

Improper control of generation of code vulnerability in Intel Security VirusScan Enterprise Linux (VSEL) 2.0.3 (and earlier) allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTTP request parameter.

The overflow protection in Expat is removed by compilers with certain optimization settings, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted XML data. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-1283 and CVE-2015-2716.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the xmlStrncat function in libxml2 before 2.9.4, as used in Apple iOS before 9.3.2, OS X before 10.11.5, tvOS before 9.2.1, and watchOS before 2.2.1, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted XML document.

Expat allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed input document, which triggers a buffer overflow.

Intel McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) 4.6.9 and earlier, 5.0.x, 5.1.x before 5.1.3 Hotfix 1106041, and 5.3.x before 5.3.1 Hotfix 1106041 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted serialized Java object, related to the Apache Commons Collections (ACC) library.

McAfee SmartFilter Administration, and SmartFilter Administration Bess Edition, before 4.2.1.01 does not require authentication for access to the JBoss Remote Method Invocation (RMI) interface, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .war file.

An unspecified ActiveX control in McAfee Virtual Technician (MVT) before 6.4, and ePO-MVT, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (Internet Explorer crash) via a crafted web site.

The administration interface in McAfee E-Business Server 8.5.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a long initial authentication packet.

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.

Buffer overflow in the IsOldAppInstalled function in the McSubMgr.McSubMgr Subscription Manager ActiveX control (MCSUBMGR.DLL) in McAfee SecurityCenter before 6.0.25 and 7.x before 7.2.147 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted argument.
