CVSS v3.1 |
| The "System Restore" directory and subdirectories, and possibly other subdirectories in the "System Volume Information" directory on Windows XP Professional, have insecure access control list (ACL) permissions, which allows local users to access restricted files and modify registry settings. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows NT 4.0 SP6a, Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP SP1, Windows XP SP2, and Windows Server 2003 SP1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (client crash) via a certain combination of a malformed HTML file and a CSS file that triggers a null dereference, probably related to rendering of a DIV element that contains a malformed IMG tag, as demonstrated by IEcrash.htm and IEcrash.rar. |
| Buffer overflow in the HTML Help ActiveX Control (hhctrl.ocx) in Microsoft Windows 98, 98 Second Edition, Millennium Edition, NT 4.0, NT 4.0 Terminal Server Edition, Windows 2000, and Windows XP allows remote attackers to execute code via (1) a long parameter to the Alink function, or (2) script containing a long argument to the showHelp function. |
| The Task scheduler (at.exe) on Microsoft Windows XP spawns each scheduled process with SYSTEM permissions, which allows local users to gain privileges. NOTE: this issue has been disputed by third parties, who state that the Task scheduler is limited to the Administrators group by default upon installation |
| Help and Support Center for Windows XP allows remote attackers to delete arbitrary files via a link to the hcp: protocol that accesses uplddrvinfo.htm. |
| Microsoft Windows XP SP1 allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via an empty datagram to a raw IP over IP socket (IP protocol 4), as originally demonstrated using code in Python 2.3. |
| Buffer overflow in SMB (Server Message Block) protocol in Microsoft Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows XP allows attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a SMB_COM_TRANSACTION packet with a request for the (1) NetShareEnum, (2) NetServerEnum2, or (3) NetServerEnum3, aka "Unchecked Buffer in Network Share Provider Can Lead to Denial of Service". |
| Integer overflow in xdr_array function in RPC servers for operating systems that use libc, glibc, or other code based on SunRPC including dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing a large number of arguments to xdr_array through RPC services such as rpc.cmsd and dmispd. |
| mshtml.dll in Microsoft Windows XP, Server 2003, and Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (access violation) by causing mshtml.dll to process button-focus events at the same time that a document is reloading, as seen in Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 by repeatedly clicking the "Delete" button in a repeating section in a form. NOTE: the normal operation of InfoPath appears to involve a local user without any privilege boundaries, so this might not be a vulnerability in InfoPath. If no realistic scenarios exist for this problem in other products, then perhaps it should be excluded from CVE. |
| The Microsoft CONVERT.EXE program, when used on Windows 2000 and Windows XP systems, does not apply the default NTFS permissions when converting a FAT32 file system, which could cause the conversion to produce a file system with less secure permissions than expected. |
| The Remote Data Protocol (RDP) version 5.1 in Microsoft Windows XP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) when Remote Desktop is enabled via a PDU Confirm Active data packet that does not set the Pattern BLT command, aka "Denial of Service in Remote Desktop." |
| NOTE: this issue has been disputed by third parties. Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, and 2003 allows local users to kill a writable process by using the CreateRemoteThread function with certain arguments on a process that has been opened using the OpenProcess function, possibly involving an invalid address for the start routine. NOTE: followup posts have disputed this issue, saying that if a user already has privileges to write to a process, then other functions could be called or the process could be terminated using PROCESS_TERMINATE |
| Stack-based buffer overflow in the Plug and Play (PnP) service for Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows XP Service Pack 1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted packet, and local users to gain privileges via a malicious application, as exploited by the Zotob (aka Mytob) worm. |
| Buffer overflow in the ZIP capability for multiple products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via ZIP files containing entries with long filenames, including (1) Microsoft Windows 98 with Plus! Pack, (2) Windows XP, (3) Windows ME, (4) Lotus Notes R4 through R6 (pre-gold), (5) Verity KeyView, and (6) Stuffit Expander before 7.0. |
| Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Small Business Server 2003 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (IP stack hang) via a continuous stream of packets on TCP port 135 that have incorrect TCP header checksums and random numbers in certain TCP header fields, as demonstrated by the Achilles Windows Attack Tool. NOTE: the researcher reports that the Microsoft Security Response Center has stated "Our investigation which has included code review, review of the TCPDump, and attempts on reproing the issue on multiple fresh installs of various Windows Operating Systems have all resulted in non confirmation. |
| The RPC component in Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0, and Windows XP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disabled RPC service) via a malformed packet to the RPC Endpoint Mapper at TCP port 135, which triggers a null pointer dereference. |
| Multiple integer overflows in the Graphics Rendering Engine (GDI32.DLL) in Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP1 and SP2, and Server 2003 SP1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted Windows Metafile (WMF) and Enhanced Metafile (EMF) format images that lead to heap-based buffer overflows, as demonstrated using MRBP16::bCheckRecord. |
| CHKDSK in Microsoft Windows 2000 before Update Rollup 1 for SP4, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003, when running in fix mode, does not properly handle security descriptors if the master file table contains a large number of files or if the descriptors do not satisfy certain NTFS conventions, which could cause ACLs for some files to be reverted to less secure defaults, or cause security descriptors to be removed. |
| The DCOM RPC interface for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, and Server 2003 allows remote attackers to cause network communications via an "alter context" call that contains additional data, aka the "Object Identity Vulnerability." |
| The FTP client in Windows XP SP1 and Server 2003, and Internet Explorer 6 SP1 on Windows 2000 SP4, when "Enable Folder View for FTP Sites" is enabled and the user manually initiates a file transfer, allows user-assisted, remote FTP servers to overwrite files in arbitrary locations via crafted filenames. |
