Microsoft Internet Explorer cannot properly restrict modifications to cookies established in HTTPS sessions, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to overwrite or delete arbitrary cookies via a Set-Cookie header in an HTTP response, related to lack of the HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) includeSubDomains feature, aka a "cookie forcing" issue.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the management interface in Microsoft FAST ESP 5.1.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

The kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows XP SP3 do not properly perform indexing of a function-pointer table during the loading of keyboard layouts from disk, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, as demonstrated in the wild in July 2010 by the Stuxnet worm, aka "Win32k Keyboard Layout Vulnerability." NOTE: this might be a duplicate of CVE-2010-3888 or CVE-2010-3889.

The Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol implementation in the IPv6 stack in Microsoft Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and Windows 7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and system hang) by sending many Router Advertisement (RA) messages with different source addresses, as demonstrated by the flood_router6 program in the thc-ipv6 package.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the CDrawPoly::Serialize function in fxscover.exe in Microsoft Windows Fax Services Cover Page Editor 5.2 r2 in Windows XP Professional SP3, Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition SP2, and Windows 7 Professional allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long record in a Fax Cover Page (.cov) file. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

The JavaScript implementation in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 and earlier does not properly restrict the set of values contained in the object returned by the getComputedStyle method, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about visited web pages by calling this method.

Integer signedness error in the SQLConnectW function in an ODBC API (odbc32.dll) in Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 SP1 and SP2, and Windows Data Access Components (WDAC) 6.0, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in the Data Source Name (DSN) and a crafted szDSN argument, which bypasses a signed comparison and leads to a buffer overflow, aka "DSN Overflow Vulnerability."

Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.8 SP1 and SP2, and Windows Data Access Components (WDAC) 6.0, does not properly validate memory allocation for internal data structures, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, possibly via a large CacheSize property that triggers an integer wrap and a buffer overflow, aka "ADO Record Memory Vulnerability." NOTE: this might be a duplicate of CVE-2010-1117 or CVE-2010-1118.

WordPad in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3 and Server 2003 SP2 does not properly parse fields in Word documents, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .doc file, aka "WordPad Converter Parsing Vulnerability."

Untrusted search path vulnerability in the client in Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection 5.2, 6.0, 6.1, and 7.0 allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DLL in the current working directory, as demonstrated by a directory that contains a .rdp file, aka "Remote Desktop Insecure Library Loading Vulnerability."

The Client/Server Run-time Subsystem (CSRSS) in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3 and Server 2003 SP2 does not properly kill processes after a logout, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information or gain privileges via a crafted application that continues to execute throughout the logout of one user and the login session of the next user, aka "CSRSS Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0023.

The (1) JScript 5.8 and (2) VBScript 5.8 scripting engines in Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 do not properly load decoded scripts obtained from web pages, which allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption and consequently obtain sensitive information via a crafted web site, aka "Scripting Engines Information Disclosure Vulnerability."

Untrusted search path vulnerability in DirectShow in Microsoft Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows 7 Gold and SP1, Windows Server 2008 R2 and R2 SP1, and Windows Media Center TV Pack for Windows Vista allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse DLL in the current working directory, as demonstrated by a directory that contains a Digital Video Recording (.dvr-ms), Windows Recorded TV Show (.wtv), or .mpg file, aka "DirectShow Insecure Library Loading Vulnerability."

The OpenType Compact Font Format (CFF) driver in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold, SP2, and R2, and Windows 7 does not properly validate parameter values in OpenType fonts, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted font, aka "OpenType Font Encoded Character Vulnerability."

Stack-based buffer overflow in the OpenType Compact Font Format (aka OTF or CFF) driver in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold, SP2, R2, and R2 SP1, and Windows 7 Gold and SP1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted parameter values in an OpenType font, aka "OpenType Font Stack Overflow Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing an object that (1) was not properly initialized or (2) is deleted, leading to memory corruption, aka "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2556 and CVE-2011-0036.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing an object that (1) was not properly initialized or (2) is deleted, leading to memory corruption, related to a "dangling pointer," aka "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2556 and CVE-2011-0035.

Microsoft Malware Protection Engine before 1.1.6603.0, as used in Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool (MSRT), Windows Defender, Security Essentials, Forefront Client Security, Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010, and Windows Live OneCare, allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted value of an unspecified user registry key.

Untrusted search path vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 might allow local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse IEShims.dll in the current working directory, as demonstrated by a Desktop directory that contains an HTML file, aka "Internet Explorer Insecure Library Loading Vulnerability."

The Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS) in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3 and Server 2003 SP2 does not properly process authentication requests, which allows local users to gain privileges via a request with a crafted length, aka "LSASS Length Validation Vulnerability."

The server in Microsoft Active Directory on Windows Server 2003 SP2 does not properly handle an update request for a service principal name (SPN), which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (authentication downgrade or outage) via a crafted request that triggers name collisions, aka "Active Directory SPN Validation Vulnerability."

Integer overflow in gdiplus.dll in GDI+ in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold and SP2, and Office XP SP3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted EMF image, aka "GDI+ Integer Overflow Vulnerability."
