CVSS v3.1 |
| Stack-based buffer overflow in Microsoft HTML Help Workshop 4.74.8702.0, and possibly earlier versions, and as included in the Microsoft HTML Help 1.4 SDK, allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a .hhp file with a long Contents file field. |
| Buffer overflow in Windows Shell (used as the Windows Desktop) allows local and possibly remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a custom URL handler that has not been removed for an application that has been improperly uninstalled. |
| The "Remember my Password" feature in MSN Messenger 7.5 stores passwords in an encrypted format under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\Creds registry key, which might allow local users to obtain the original passwords via a program that calls CryptUnprotectData, as demonstrated by the "MSN Password Recovery.exe" program. NOTE: it could be argued that local-only password recovery is inherently insecure because the decryption methods and keys must be stored somewhere on the local system, and are thus inherently accessible with varying degrees of effort. Perhaps this issue should not be included in CVE. |
| RunAs (runas.exe) in Windows 2000 stores cleartext authentication information in memory, which could allow attackers to obtain usernames and passwords by executing a process that is allocated the same memory page after termination of a RunAs command. NOTE: the vendor disputes this issue, saying that administrative privileges are already required to exploit it, and the original researcher did not respond to requests for additional information |
| Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Hyperlink Object Library (hlink.dll), possibly a buffer overflow, allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted hyperlinks that are not properly handled when hlink.dll "uses a file containing a malformed function," aka "Hyperlink Object Function Vulnerability." |
| Buffer overflow in Windows NT 4.0 help file utility via a malformed help file. |
| The 802.11 wireless client in certain operating systems including Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 does not warn the user when (1) it establishes an association with a station in ad hoc (aka peer-to-peer) mode or (2) a station in ad hoc mode establishes an association with it, which allows remote attackers to put unexpected wireless communication into place. |
| cphost.dll in Microsoft Site Server 3.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disk consumption) via an HTTP POST of a file with a long TargetURL parameter, which causes Site Server to abort and leaves the uploaded file in c:\temp. |
| The Web administration interface in Microsoft MN-500 Wireless Router allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection refusal) via a large number of open HTTP connections. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack overflow exception) via a DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Gradient ActiveX object with a long (1) StartColorStr or (2) EndColorStr property. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via HTML elements with a certain crafted tag, which leads to memory corruption. |
| Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by setting the Enabled property of a DXTFilter ActiveX object to true, which triggers a null dereference. |
| NETBIOS share information may be published through SNMP registry keys in NT. |
| Vulnerabilities in IIS 4.0 and 5.0 do not properly protect against cross-site scripting (CSS) attacks. They allow a malicious web site operator to embed scripts in a link to a trusted site, which are returned without quoting in an error message back to the client. The client then executes those scripts in the same context as the trusted site, aka the "IIS Cross-Site Scripting" vulnerabilities. |
| Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 and 5.0 does not properly handle (1) malformed NNTP data, or (2) malformed SMTP data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application error). |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by accessing the object references of a FolderItem ActiveX object, which triggers a null dereference in the security check. |
| Directory traversal vulnerability in CodeBrws.asp in Microsoft IIS 5.0 allows remote attackers to view source code and determine the existence of arbitrary files via a hex-encoded "%c0%ae%c0%ae" string, which is the Unicode representation for ".." (dot dot). |
| Norton Internet Security 2001 opens log files with FILE_SHARE_READ and FILE_SHARE_WRITE permissions, which could allow remote attackers to modify the log file contents while Norton Internet Security is running. |
| IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allows remote attackers to read documents outside of the web root, and possibly execute arbitrary commands, via malformed URLs that contain UNICODE encoded characters, aka the "Web Server Folder Traversal" vulnerability. |
| The FTP service in Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0, 5.0 and 5.1 allows attackers who have established an FTP session to cause a denial of service via a specially crafted status request containing glob characters. |
