Microsoft » Windows Server 2008 » N/A gold itanium : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2010 (Code Execution)

Windows Shell in Microsoft Windows XP SP3, Server 2003 SP2, Vista SP1 and SP2, Server 2008 SP2 and R2, and Windows 7 allows local users or remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) .LNK or (2) .PIF shortcut file, which is not properly handled during icon display in Windows Explorer, as demonstrated in the wild in July 2010, and originally reported for malware that leverages CVE-2010-2772 in Siemens WinCC SCADA systems.

The TCP/IP implementation in Microsoft Windows Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2 and Server 2008 Gold and SP2, when IPv6 is enabled, does not properly perform bounds checking on ICMPv6 Route Information packets, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted packets, aka "ICMPv6 Route Information Vulnerability."

The TCP/IP implementation in Microsoft Windows Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2 and Server 2008 Gold and SP2, when a custom network driver is used, does not properly handle local fragmentation of Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) over UDP packets, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted packets, aka "Header MDL Fragmentation Vulnerability."

The TCP/IP implementation in Microsoft Windows Vista Gold, SP1, and SP2 and Server 2008 Gold and SP2, when IPv6 is enabled, does not properly perform bounds checking on ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted packets, aka "ICMPv6 Router Advertisement Vulnerability."
