Microsoft : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In August 2007

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 and 7 allows user-assisted remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML in the local zone via a URI, when the document at the associated URL is saved to a local file, which then contains the URI string along with the document's original content.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and 7 embeds FTP credentials in HTML files that are retrieved during an FTP session, which allows context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information by reading the HTML source, as demonstrated by a (1) .htm, (2) .html, or (3) .mht file.

Buffer overflow in the Live Picture Corporation DXSurface.LivePicture.FlashPix.1 (DirectTransform FlashPix) ActiveX control in DXTLIPI.DLL 6.0.2.827, as packaged in Microsoft DirectX Media 6.0 SDK, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long SourceUrl property value.

Microsoft Windows Media Player 11 (wmplayer.exe) allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted .au file that triggers a divide-by-zero error, as demonstrated by iapetus.au.

Stack-based buffer overflow in a certain ActiveX control in VDT70.DLL in Microsoft Visual Database Tools Database Designer 7.0 for Microsoft Visual Studio 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long argument to the NotSafe method. NOTE: this may overlap CVE-2007-2885 or CVE-2005-2127.

Windows Calendar on Microsoft Windows Vista allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL dereference and persistent application crash) via a malformed ICS file.

Microsoft Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a certain JPG file, as demonstrated by something.jpg. NOTE: this issue might be related to CVE-2007-3958.

Unspecified vulnerability in Windows Vista Weather Gadgets in Windows Vista allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted HTML attributes.

Microsoft Excel in Office 2000 SP3, Office XP SP3, Office 2003 SP2, and Office 2004 for Mac allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Workspace with a certain index value that triggers memory corruption.

Unspecified vulnerability in the pdwizard.ocx ActiveX object for Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, and 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors related to Microsoft Visual Basic 6 objects and memory corruption, aka "ActiveX Object Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1, 9, 10, and 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a skin file (WMZ or WMD) with crafted header information that causes a size mismatch between compressed and decompressed data and triggers a heap-based buffer overflow, aka "Windows Media Player Code Execution Vulnerability Parsing Skins."

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1, 9, 10, and 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a skin file (WMZ or WMD) with crafted header information that is not properly handled during decompression, aka "Windows Media Player Code Execution Vulnerability Decompressing Skins."

Integer overflow in the AttemptWrite function in Graphics Rendering Engine (GDI) on Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2, and Server 2003 SP1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted metafile (image) with a large record length value, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Windows Vista Feed Headlines Gadget (aka Sidebar RSS Feeds Gadget) in Windows Vista allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an RSS feed with crafted HTML attributes, which are not properly removed and are rendered in the local zone.

Unspecified vulnerability in Windows Vista Contacts Gadget in Windows Vista allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted contact information that is not properly handled when it is imported.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft MSN Messenger 6.2, 7.0, and 7.5, and Live Messenger 8.0 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors involving video conversation handling in Web Cam and video chat sessions.

Unspecified vulnerability in Atheros 802.11 a/b/g wireless adapter drivers before 5.3.0.35, and 6.x before 6.0.3.67, on Windows allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted 802.11 management frame.

Object linking and embedding (OLE) Automation, as used in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2, Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, Office 2004 for Mac, and Visual Basic 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the substringData method on a TextNode object, which causes an integer overflow that leads to a buffer overflow.

Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) 3.0 through 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the substringData method on a (1) TextNode or (2) XMLDOM object, which causes an integer overflow that leads to a buffer overflow.

The tblinf32.dll (aka vstlbinf.dll) ActiveX control for Internet Explorer 5.01, 6 SP1, and 7 uses an incorrect IObjectsafety implementation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by requesting the HelpString property, involving a crafted DLL file argument to the TypeLibInfoFromFile function, which overwrites the HelpStringDll property to call the DLLGetDocumentation function in another DLL file, aka "ActiveX Object Vulnerability."

Integer underflow in the CDownloadSink class code in the Vector Markup Language (VML) component (VGX.DLL), as used in Internet Explorer 5.01, 6, and 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via compressed content with an invalid buffer size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Virtual PC 2004 and PC for Mac 7.1 and 7, and Virtual Server 2005 and 2005 R2, allows local guest OS administrators to execute arbitrary code on the host OS via unspecified vectors related to "interaction and initialization of components."

Unspecified vulnerability in Internet Explorer 5.01 and 6 SP1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) strings that trigger memory corruption during parsing, related to use of out-of-bounds pointers.
