Microsoft » Access : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs,

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Access software when the software fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted file with an affected version of Microsoft Access. In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Microsoft Access handles objects in memory.

A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Microsoft Office improperly loads arbitrary type libraries, aka 'Microsoft Office Remote Code Execution Vulnerability'. This CVE ID is unique from CVE-2020-0991.

Microsoft Access 2007 SP3, 2010 SP1 and SP2, and 2013 in Microsoft Office allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted Access file, aka "Access Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-3155.

Microsoft Access 2007 SP3, 2010 SP1 and SP2, and 2013 in Microsoft Office allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted Access file, aka "Access File Format Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Access 2007 SP3, 2010 SP1 and SP2, and 2013 in Microsoft Office allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted Access file, aka "Access Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-3157.

The FieldList ActiveX control in the Microsoft Access Wizard Controls in ACCWIZ.dll in Microsoft Office Access 2003 SP3 does not properly interact with the memory-access approach used by Internet Explorer and Office during instantiation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via an HTML document that references this control along with crafted persistent storage data, aka "ACCWIZ.dll Uninitialized Variable Vulnerability."

The Microsoft Access Wizard Controls in ACCWIZ.dll in Microsoft Office Access 2003 SP3 and 2007 SP1 and SP2 do not properly interact with the memory-allocation approach used by Internet Explorer during instantiation, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a web site that references multiple ActiveX controls, as demonstrated by the ImexGrid and FieldList controls, aka "Access ActiveX Control Vulnerability."

Microsoft Crypto API 5.131.2600.2180 through 6.0, as used in Outlook, Windows Live Mail, and Office 2007, performs Certificate Revocation List (CRL) checks by using an arbitrary URL from a certificate embedded in a (1) S/MIME e-mail message or (2) signed document, which allows remote attackers to obtain reading times and IP addresses of recipients, and port-scan results, via a crafted certificate with an Authority Information Access (AIA) extension.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Access allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .MDB file, possibly related to Jet Engine (msjet40.dll). NOTE: this is probably a different issue than CVE-2007-6026.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Access allows remote, user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Microsoft Access Database (.mdb) file. NOTE: due to the lack of details as of 20071210, it is not clear whether this issue is the same as CVE-2007-6026 or CVE-2005-0944.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Excel 2000, XP, 2003, and 2004 for Mac, and possibly other Office products, allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors, as demonstrated by Exploit-MSExcel.h in targeted zero-day attacks.

Unspecified vulnerability in PowerPoint in Microsoft Office 2000, Office 2002, Office 2003, Office 2004 for Mac, and Office v.X for Mac allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via an unspecified "crafted file," a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-3435, CVE-2006-4694, and CVE-2006-3876.

Buffer overflow in the ActiveX control for Microsoft Access Snapshot Viewer for Access 97, 2000, and 2002 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long parameters to the control.

The Mail Merge tool in Microsoft Word does not prompt the user before executing Visual Basic (VBA) scripts in an Access database, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands.

The Office 2000 UA ActiveX Control is marked as "safe for scripting," which allows remote attackers to conduct unauthorized activities via the "Show Me" function in Office Help, aka the "Office 2000 UA Control" vulnerability.

Microsoft Access 97 stores a database password as plaintext in a foreign mdb, allowing access to data.
