Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Forced Integer Overflow This attack forces an integer variable to go out of range. The integer variable is often used as an offset such as size of memory allocation or similarly. The attacker would typically control the value of such variable and try to get it out of range. For instance the integer in question is incremented past the maximum possible value, it may wrap to become a very small, or negative number, therefore providing a very incorrect value which can lead to unexpected behavior. At worst the attacker can execute arbitrary code.

description | The Publisher component of Microsoft Office installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - The application has a negative value allocation vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1316) - The application has an integer overflow vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1317) - The application has a corrupt interface pointer vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1318) - The application has a return value handling vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1319) - The application has a buffer overflow vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1320) - The application has a return value validation vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1321) - The application has an invalid range check vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1322) - The application has an incorrect NULL value handling vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1323) - The application has a signed integer vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1327) - The application has a pointer handling vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1328) - The application has a buffer underflow vulnerability. (CVE-2013-1329) A remote attacker could exploit these by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted Publisher file, resulting in remote code execution. |
