Description:
|
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows. User interaction is required in that a target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious video file. The specific flaw exists within Microsoft's DirectShow module quartz.dll. While parsing QuickTime atoms the NumberOfEntries field is trusted and if modified can control the location of several pointers meant to track stream positions. Specifying values that are larger than the number of bytes left to process in the input file will cause corruption that can be leveraged to execute arbitrary code.

VMware Security Advisory - A vulnerability in the udev program did not verify whether a NETLINK message originates from kernel space, which allows local users to gain privileges by sending a NETLINK message from user space. Sudo versions 1.6.9p17 through 1.6.9p19 do not properly interpret a system group in the sudoers file during authorization decisions for a user who belongs to that group, which might allow local users to leverage an applicable sudoers file and gain root privileges by using a sudo command. The redirect implementation in curl and libcurl 5.11 through 7.19.3, when CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION is enabled, accepts arbitrary Location values, which might allow remote HTTP servers to trigger arbitrary requests to intranet servers, read or overwrite arbitrary files by using a redirect to a file: URL, or execute arbitrary commands by using a redirect to an scp: URL.

Zero Day Initiative Advisory 09-046 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on systems running vulnerable versions of Novell's Privileged User Manager. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the unifid.exe service which binds on port 29010 for a protocol providing RPC-like functionality encapsulated over SSL. This protocol allows a client to make a method call into a module. The 'spf' RPC call is implemented unsafely allowing remote attackers to load arbitrary modules over the network resulting in code execution under the context of the service.
