Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In December 2007

Perl-Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library before 6.7 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (error or crash) via a regular expression that involves a "malformed POSIX character class", as demonstrated via an invalid character after a [[ sequence.

Perl-Compatible Regular Expression (PCRE) library before 6.7 does not properly calculate the compiled memory allocation for regular expressions that involve a quantified "subpattern containing a named recursion or subroutine reference," which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (error or crash).

Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Media Format Runtime 7.1, 9, 9.5, 9.5 x64 Edition, 11, and Windows Media Services 9.1 for Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, and Vista allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Advanced Systems Format (ASF) file.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) service in Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP4, Windows 2000 Professional SP4, and Windows XP SP2 allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string in an opnum 0x06 RPC call to port 2103. NOTE: this is remotely exploitable on Windows 2000 Server.

Stack-based buffer overflow in SMB in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 allows local users to execute arbitrary code via (1) a long workgroup (-W) option to mount_smbfs or (2) an unspecified manipulation of the command line to smbutil.

Buffer overflow in Microsoft DirectShow in Microsoft DirectX 7.0 through 10.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) WAV or (2) AVI file.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the DirectShow Synchronized Accessible Media Interchange (SAMI) parser in quartz.dll for Microsoft DirectX 7.0 through 10.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted SAMI file.

Use-after-free vulnerability in the CRecalcProperty function in mshtml.dll in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by calling the setExpression method and then modifying the outerHTML property of an HTML element, one variant of "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via uninitialized or deleted objects used in repeated calls to the (1) cloneNode or (2) nodeValue JavaScript function, a different issue than CVE-2007-3902 and CVE-2007-5344, a variant of "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Gesytec Easylon OPC Server before 2.3.44 does not properly validate server handles, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via unspecified network traffic to the OLE for Process Control (OPC) interface, probably related to free operations on arbitrary memory addresses through certain Remove functions, and read and write operations on arbitrary memory addresses through certain Set, Read, and Write functions.

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the IBM Lotus Domino Web Access ActiveX control, as provided by inotes6.dll, inotes6w.dll, dwa7.dll, and dwa7w.dll, in Domino 6.x and 7.x allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated by an overflow from a long General_ServerName property value when calling the InstallBrowserHelperDll function in the Upload Module in the dwa7.dwa7.1 control in dwa7w.dll 7.0.34.1.

The ipv6_hop_jumbo function in net/ipv6/exthdrs.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.22 does not properly validate the hop-by-hop IPv6 extended header, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and kernel panic) via a crafted IPv6 packet.

HSQLDB before 1.8.0.9, as used in OpenOffice.org (OOo) 2 before 2.3.1, allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary Java code via crafted database documents, related to "exposing static java methods."

Heap-based buffer overflow in Apple QuickTime before 7.3.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted QTL file.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in the Flash media handler in Apple QuickTime before 7.3.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or have other unspecified impacts via a crafted QuickTime movie.

Format string vulnerability in Address Book in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the URL handler.

Directory traversal vulnerability in CFNetwork in Apple Mac OS X 10.5.1 allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a crafted HTTP response.

Unspecified vulnerability in ColorSync in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application termination) or execute arbitrary code via an image with a crafted ColorSync profile, which triggers memory corruption.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the (1) mod_imap module in the Apache HTTP Server 1.3.0 through 1.3.39 and 2.0.35 through 2.0.61 and the (2) mod_imagemap module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.2.0 through 2.2.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the ir_fetch_seq function in balsa before 2.3.20 might allow remote IMAP servers to execute arbitrary code via a long response to a FETCH command.

The default catalina.policy in the JULI logging component in Apache Tomcat 5.5.9 through 5.5.25 and 6.0.0 through 6.0.15 does not restrict certain permissions for web applications, which allows attackers to modify logging configuration options and overwrite arbitrary files, as demonstrated by changing the (1) level, (2) directory, and (3) prefix attributes in the org.apache.juli.FileHandler handler.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted website using Javascript that creates, modifies, deletes, and accesses document objects using the tags property, which triggers heap corruption, related to uninitialized or deleted objects, a different issue than CVE-2007-3902 and CVE-2007-3903, and a variant of "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via "unexpected method calls to HTML objects," aka "DHTML Object Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Unspecified vulnerability in the Windows Advanced Local Procedure Call (ALPC) in the kernel in Microsoft Windows Vista allows local users to gain privileges via unspecified vectors involving "legacy reply paths."

Unspecified vulnerability in Server Message Block Version 2 (SMBv2) signing support in Microsoft Windows Vista allows remote attackers to force signature re-computation and execute arbitrary code via a crafted SMBv2 packet, aka "SMBv2 Signing Vulnerability."
