NASL family Windows : Microsoft Bulletins NASL id SMB_NT_MS17_APR_4015549.NASL description The remote Windows host is missing security update 4015546 or cumulative update 4015549. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities : - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the open-source libjpeg image processing library due to improper handling of objects in memory. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive information that can be utilized to bypass ASLR security protections. (CVE-2013-6629) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the win32k component due to improper handling of kernel information. A local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted application, to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2017-0058) - Multiple privilege escalation vulnerabilities exist in the Microsoft Graphics Component due to improper handling of objects in memory. A local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted application, to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. (CVE-2017-0155, CVE-2017-0156) - A flaw exists in the VBScript engine due to improper handling of objects in memory. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to visit a malicious website or open a specially crafted document file, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0158) - Multiple flaws exist in Windows Hyper-V Network Switch due to improper validation of input from the guest operating system. A local attacker can exploit these, via a specially crafted application on the guest, to execute arbitrary code on the host system. (CVE-2017-0163, CVE-2017-0180) - A flaw exists in LDAP due to buffer request lengths not being properly calculated. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted traffic sent to a Domain Controller, to run processes with elevated privileges. (CVE-2017-0166) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Windows Hyper-V Network Switch due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A guest attacker can exploit this to disclose sensitive information on the host server. (CVE-2017-0168) - Multiple denial of service vulnerabilities exist in Windows Hyper-V Network Switch due to improper validation of input from the guest operating system. A local attacker on the guest can exploit these vulnerabilities, via a specially crafted application, to crash the host system. (CVE-2017-0182, CVE-2017-0183) - A denial of service vulnerability exists in Hyper-V due to improper validation of input from a privileged user on a guest operating system. A local attacker on the guest can exploit this, via a specially crafted application, to cause the host system to crash. (CVE-2017-0184) - A flaw exists in Windows due to improper handling of objects in memory that allows an attacker to cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2017-0191) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Adobe Type Manager Font Driver (ATMFD.dll) due to improper handling of objects in memory. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to open a specially crafted document or visit a malicious web page, to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2017-0192) - An arbitrary code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Office and Windows WordPad due to improper handling of specially crafted files. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to open a malicious file, to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. Note that this vulnerability is being utilized to spread the Petya ransomware. (CVE-2017-0199) - A memory corruption issue exists in Internet Explorer due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to visit a malicious website, to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-0202) - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists in Internet Explorer due to a failure to properly enforce cross-domain policies. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to inject arbitrary content and gain elevated privileges.
