Weekly Vulnerabilities Reports > September 13 to 19, 2004

PHP remote file inclusion vulnerability in Function.php in Mambo 4.5 (1.0.9) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by modifying the mosConfig_absolute_path parameter to reference a URL on a remote web server that contains the code.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the DVD subpicture decoder in xine xine-lib 1-rc5 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a (1) DVD or (2) MPEG subpicture header where the second field reuses RLE data from the end of the first field.

SMC routers SMC7004VWBR running firmware 1.00.014 and SMC7008ABR EU running firmware 1.42.003 allow remote attackers to bypass authentication by connecting to it from the same IP address as the administrator who is logged in, then accessing the setup_status.htm or status.HTM pages.

McAfee VirusScan 4.5.1 does not drop SYSTEM privileges before allowing users to browse for files via the "System Scan" properties of the System Tray applet, which could allow local users to gain privileges.

The Web Server in DNS4Me 3.0.0.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and crash) via a large amount of data.

Pigeon Server 3.02.0143 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a long login name sent to port 3103.

CRLF injection vulnerability in down.asp for Snitz Forums 2000 3.4.04 allows remote attackers to perform HTTP Response Splitting attacks to modify expected HTML content from the server via the location parameter.

Opera does not prevent cookies that are sent over an insecure channel (HTTP) from also being sent over a secure channel (HTTPS/SSL) in the same domain, which could allow remote attackers to steal cookies and conduct unauthorized activities, aka "Cross Security Boundary Cookie Injection."

Mozilla does not prevent cookies that are sent over an insecure channel (HTTP) from also being sent over a secure channel (HTTPS/SSL) in the same domain, which could allow remote attackers to steal cookies and conduct unauthorized activities, aka "Cross Security Boundary Cookie Injection."

KDE Konqueror does not prevent cookies that are sent over an insecure channel (HTTP) from also being sent over a secure channel (HTTPS/SSL) in the same domain, which could allow remote attackers to steal cookies and conduct unauthorized activities, aka "Cross Security Boundary Cookie Injection."

Internet Explorer does not prevent cookies that are sent over an insecure channel (HTTP) from also being sent over a secure channel (HTTPS/SSL) in the same domain, which could allow remote attackers to steal cookies and conduct unauthorized activities, aka "Cross Security Boundary Cookie Injection."

Internet Explorer 6.0 in Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to bypass the Information Bar prompt for ActiveX and Javascript via an XHTML page that contains an Internet Explorer formatted comment between the DOCTYPE tag and the HTML tag, as demonstrated using the DesignScience MathPlayer ActiveX plugin.

Zyxel P681 running ZyNOS Vt020225a contains portions of memory in an ARP request, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by sniffing the network.

application.cgi in the Pingtel Xpressa handset running firmware 2.1.11.24 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (VxWorks OS crash) via a long HTTP GET request, possibly triggering a buffer overflow.

Directory traversal vulnerability in pdesk.cgi in PerlDesk allows remote attackers to read portions of arbitrary files and possibly execute arbitrary Perl modules via ".." sequences terminated by a %00 (null) character in the lang parameter, which can leak portions of the requested files if a compilation error message occurs.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in index.php in Mambo 4.5 (1.0.9) allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) Itemid, (2) mosmsg, or (3) limit parameters.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Web Server in DNS4Me 3.0.0.4 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary web script or HTML via the URL.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Business Objects InfoView 5.1.4 through 5.1.8 for WebIntelligence 2.7.0 through 2.7.4 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via document names when uploading a document.

A race condition in crrtrap for QNX RTP 6.1 allows local users to gain privileges by modifying the PATH environment variable to reference a malicious io-graphics program before is executed by crrtrap.

sudoedit (aka sudo -e) in sudo 1.6.8 opens a temporary file with root privileges, which allows local users to read arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the temporary file before quitting sudoedit.

Lexar Safe Guard for JumpDrive Secure 1.0 stores the password insecurely in memory using XOR encryption, which allows local users to read the password directly from the device and access the password protected part of the drive.
