Symantec : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, (Gain Privilege)

Sygate personal firewall 5.0 could allow remote attackers to bypass firewall filters via spoofed (1) source IP address of 127.0.0.1 or (2) network address of 127.0.0.0.

Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 1.1 before 1.1 patch 2, 2.0.0, and 2.0.1 does not authenticate connections between the console and the Ghost Management Agent, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via unspecified RPC requests in conjunction with ARP spoofing.

The management console in the Volume Manager Scheduler Service (aka VxSchedService.exe) in Symantec Veritas Storage Foundation for Windows (SFW) 5.0, 5.0 RP1a, and 5.1 accepts NULL NTLMSSP authentication, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via requests to the service socket that create "snapshots schedules" registry values specifying future command execution. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-2279.

VRTSweb.exe in VRTSweb in Symantec Backup Exec Continuous Protection Server (CPS) 11d, 12.0, and 12.5; Veritas NetBackup Operations Manager (NOM) 6.0 GA through 6.5.5; Veritas Backup Reporter (VBR) 6.0 GA through 6.6; Veritas Storage Foundation (SF) 3.5; Veritas Storage Foundation for Windows High Availability (SFWHA) 4.3MP2, 5.0, 5.0RP1a, 5.0RP2, 5.1, and 5.1AP1; Veritas Storage Foundation for High Availability (SFHA) 3.5; Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle (SFO) 4.1, 5.0, and 5.0.1; Veritas Storage Foundation for DB2 4.1 and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation for Sybase 4.1 and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle Real Application Cluster (SFRAC) 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation Manager (SFM) 1.0, 1.0 MP1, 1.1, 1.1.1Ux, 1.1.1Win, and 2.0; Veritas Cluster Server (VCS) 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0; Veritas Cluster Server One (VCSOne) 2.0, 2.0.1, and 2.0.2; Veritas Application Director (VAD) 1.1 and 1.1 Platform Expansion; Veritas Cluster Server Management Console (VCSMC) 5.1, 5.5, and 5.5.1; Veritas Storage Foundation Cluster File System (SFCFS) 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, and 5.0; Veritas Storage Foundation Cluster File System for Oracle RAC (SFCFS RAC) 5.0; Veritas Command Central Storage (CCS) 4.x, 5.0, and 5.1; Veritas Command Central Enterprise Reporter (CC-ER) 5.0 GA, 5.0 MP1, 5.0 MP1RP1, and 5.1; Veritas Command Central Storage Change Manager (CC-SCM) 5.0 and 5.1; and Veritas MicroMeasure 5.0 does not properly validate authentication requests, which allows remote attackers to trigger the unpacking of a WAR archive, and execute arbitrary code in the contained files, via crafted data to TCP port 14300.

The host-services component in Symantec pcAnywhere 12.5.x through 12.5.3, and IT Management Suite pcAnywhere Solution 7.0 (aka 12.5.x) and 7.1 (aka 12.6.x), does not properly filter login and authentication data, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted session on TCP port 5631.

Symantec Reporter 9.5 prior to 9.5.4.1 and 10.1 prior to 10.1.5.5 does not restrict excessive authentication attempts for management interface users. A remote attacker can use brute force search to guess a user password and gain access to Reporter.

The Symantec Messaging Gateway product prior to 10.6.6 may be susceptible to an authentication bypass exploit, which is a type of issue that can allow attackers to potentially circumvent security mechanisms currently in place and gain access to the system or network.

Symantec Messaging Gateway, prior to 10.7.1, may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user.

Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response (SEDR) Appliance, prior to 4.7.0, may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the Backup Exec remote-agent logon process in Symantec Backup Exec for Windows Servers 11.0 (aka 11d) builds 6235 and 7170, 12.0 build 1364, and 12.5 build 2213 allow remote attackers to bypass authentication, and read or delete files, via unknown vectors.

Symantec AppStream 5.2.x and Symantec Workspace Streaming (SWS) 6.1.x before 6.1 SP4 do not properly perform authentication, which allows remote Workspace Streaming servers and man-in-the-middle attackers to download arbitrary executable files onto a client system, and execute these files, via unspecified vectors.

Intel Alert Management System (aka AMS or AMS2), as used in Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition (SAVCE) 10.x before 10.1 MR10, Symantec System Center (SSC) 10.x, and Symantec Quarantine Server 3.5 and 3.6, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via crafted messages over TCP, as discovered by Junaid Bohio, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0110 and CVE-2010-0111. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Symantec Endpoint Protection prior to 14 RU1 MP1 or 12.1 RU6 MP10 could be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue that allows a user to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected at lower access levels.

The Inventory Plugin for Symantec Management Agent prior to 7.6 POST HF7, 8.0 POST HF6, or 8.1 RU7 may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue that allows a user to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected at lower access levels.

A Privilege Escalation vulnerability exists in Symantec Norton Antivirus, Norton AntiVirus with Backup, Norton Security, Norton Security with Backup, Norton Internet Security, Norton 360, Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition Cloud, and Endpoint Protection Cloud Client due to a DLL-preloading without path restrictions, which could let a local malicious user obtain system privileges.

A privilege escalation vulnerability exists when loading DLLs during boot up and reboot in Symantec IT Management Suite 8.0 prior to 8.0 HF4 and Suite 7.6 prior to 7.6 HF7, Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 3.1 prior to 3.1 MP4, Symantec Endpoint Virtualization 7.x prior to 7.6 HF7, and Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.x prior to 10.4.1, which could let a local malicious user execute arbitrary code.

Symantec ProxyClient 3.4 for Windows is susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious local Windows user can, under certain circumstances, exploit this vulnerability to escalate their privileges on the system and execute arbitrary code with LocalSystem privileges.

Symantec Endpoint Protection prior to SEP 12.1 RU6 MP9 could be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue that allows a user to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected at lower access levels. In the circumstances of this issue, the capability of exploit is limited by the need to perform multiple file and directory writes to the local filesystem and as such, is not feasible in a standard drive-by type attack.

Symantec Endpoint Encryption, prior to SEE 11.3.0, may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue that allows a user to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected at lower access levels.

Symantec Endpoint Protection, prior to 14.2 RU1 & 12.1 RU6 MP10 and Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition, prior to 12.1 RU6 MP10c (12.1.7491.7002), may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user.

Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP), prior to 14.2 RU2 & 12.1 RU6 MP10 and Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition (SEP SBE) prior to 12.1 RU6 MP10d (12.1.7510.7002), may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user.

Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM) and Symantec Mail Security for MS Exchange (SMSMSE), prior to versions 14.2 RU2 and 7.5.x respectively, may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user.
