VLC: memory corruption via XSPF
Synthesis of the vulnerability
An attacker can create a malicious XSPF playlist and invite the victim to open it with VLC in order to execute code on his computer.
Severity: 2/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Identifiers: BID-31758, CERTA-2008-AVI-509, CORE-2008-1010, CVE-2008-4558, VIGILANCE-VUL-8177.
Full Vigil@nce bulletin... (Free trial)
Description of the vulnerability
The VideoLAN VLC program displays multimedia documents.
The XSPF (XML Format for Sharing Playlist) format associates a numeric identifier to each multimedia document. For example:
...
<identifier>0</identifier><location>song.mp3</location>...
<identifier>1</identifier><location>track.mp3</location>...
However, VLC directly uses this identifier as an array index. An attacker can thus for example use a negative identifier to corrupt the memory.
An attacker can therefore create a malicious XSPF playlist and invite the victim to open it with VLC in order to execute code on his computer.

Linux kernel: bypassing S_APPEND
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can use the splice() function to bypass the S_APPEND restriction.
Severity: 1/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Identifiers: BID-31903, CERTA-2002-AVI-217, CVE-2008-4554, DSA-1681-1, DSA-1687-1, FEDORA-2008-8929, FEDORA-2008-8980, MDVSA-2008:224, MDVSA-2008:224-1, RHSA-2008:1017-01, RHSA-2009:0009-02, SUSE-SA:2009:003, SUSE-SA:2009:030, VIGILANCE-VUL-8176.
Full Vigil@nce bulletin... (Free trial)
Description of the vulnerability
A file can have special properties:
- S_NOATIME: do not update access time
- S_APPEND: open in append only mode
- etc.
The splice() system call, added in version 2.6.17, can for example be used to transfer data between descriptors. However, when splice() is used, the S_APPEND property is not honoured.
A local attacker can use the splice() function to bypass the S_APPEND restriction.

Windows: privilege elevation via AFD
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can create an error in Ancillary Function Driver in order to execute code with system privileges.
Severity: 2/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Revision date: 16/10/2008.
Identifiers: 956803, BID-31673, CERTA-2008-AVI-507, CVE-2008-3464, MS08-066, VIGILANCE-VUL-8175.

Description of the vulnerability
The afd.sys (Ancillary Function Driver) driver is used to access to Winsock network features.
The TDI (Transport Driver Interface) interface is used to communicate with AFD.
However, TDI does not correctly check User Mode parameters given to the kernel, which corrupts the memory.
A local attacker can therefore create an error in Ancillary Function Driver in order to execute code with system privileges.

Windows 2000 MSMQ: code execution
Synthesis of the vulnerability
An attacker can send a malicious RPC query to the Message Queuing service in order to execute code.
Severity: 3/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Identifiers: 951071, BID-31637, CERTA-2008-AVI-506, CVE-2008-3479, MS08-065, TPTI-08-07, VIGILANCE-VUL-8174.
Full Vigil@nce bulletin... (Free trial)
Description of the vulnerability
The Message Queuing (MSMQ - mqsvc.exe) service handles messages of a distributed application. It is disabled by default.
When a RPC query contains a long string, a buffer overflow occurs when it is copied by mqsvc.exe.
An attacker can therefore send a malicious RPC query to the Message Queuing service in order to execute code with system privileges.

Windows: privilege elevation via Virtual Address Descriptor
Synthesis of the vulnerability
A local attacker can generate an integer overflow in Virtual Address Descriptors in order to obtain system privileges.
Severity: 2/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Identifiers: 956841, BID-31675, CERTA-2008-AVI-505, CVE-2008-4036, MS08-064, VIGILANCE-VUL-8173.

Description of the vulnerability
VADs (Virtual Address Descriptors) are used by applications to handle their own memory space.
However, a program can force a variable to be decremented in VAD implementation, which creates an integer overflow.
A local attacker can therefore execute a malicious program in order to obtain system privileges.

Windows: buffer overflow of SMB
Synthesis of the vulnerability
An authenticated attacker can execute code on servers sharing files via SMB.
Severity: 3/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Identifiers: 957095, BID-31647, CERTA-2008-AVI-504, CVE-2008-4038, MS08-063, VIGILANCE-VUL-8172.
Full Vigil@nce bulletin... (Free trial)
Description of the vulnerability
The SMB/CIFS protocol is used to share files or printers. This protocol uses commands: open a session, create a directory, etc.
One of these commands, which can only be called after an authentication, does not correctly check the filename size, which creates a buffer overflow.
An authenticated attacker can therefore execute code on servers sharing files via SMB.

Windows IIS IPP: integer overflow
Synthesis of the vulnerability
An attacker can generate an overflow on the Internet Printing Protocol service in order to execute code.
Severity: 3/4.
Creation date: 15/10/2008.
Identifiers: 953155, BID-31682, CERTA-2008-AVI-503, CVE-2008-1446, MS08-062, VIGILANCE-VUL-8171, VU#793233.
Full Vigil@nce bulletin... (Free trial)
Description of the vulnerability
The Microsoft Internet Printing Protocol service can be enabled on Microsoft IIS to allow remote users to print. The IPP protocol is based on HTTP.
An attacker allowed to connect to IPP can send a malicious HTTP POST query in order to generate an integer overflow.
An attacker can thus execute code.
