to send specially-crafted messages to a vulnerable
system, which causes the RPCSS Service to stop
responding.;The RPC Over HTTP vulnerability may be
used to launch a denial of service (DoS) attack
against a system with CIS or RPC over HTTP Proxy
enabled.;When successfully exploited, the Object
Identity vulnerability allows an attacker to force
currently running applications to open network
communication ports, thereby opening a system to
remote attacks. MS04-012
CriticalThe MHTML URL Processing Vulnerability
allows remote attackers to bypass domain
restrictions and execute arbitrary code via script
in a compiled help (CHM) file that references the
InfoTech Storage (ITS) protocol handlers.This
could allow an attacker to take complete control
of an affected system. MS04-013
CriticalThis vulnerability exists in the Help and
Support Center (HCP) and is due to the way it
handles HCP URL validation. This vulnerability
could allow an attacker to remotely execute
arbitrary code with Local System privileges.
MS04-015
ModerateA denial of service (DoS) vulnerability
exists in Outlook Express that could cause the
said program to fail. The malformed email should
be removed before restarting Outlook Express in
order to regain its normal operation. MS04-018
CriticalThis vulnerability lies in an unchecked
buffer within the Task Scheduler component. When
exploited, it allows the attacker to execute
arbitrary code on the affected machine with the
same privileges as the currently logged on user.
MS04-022
CriticalAn attacker who successfully exploits this
vulnerability could gain the same privileges as
that of the currently logged on user. If the user
is logged in with administrative privileges, the
attacker could take complete control of the
system. User accounts with fewer privileges are at
less risk than users with administrative
privileges. MS04-023
CriticalThe Navigation Method Cross-Domain
Vulnerability is a remote execution vulnerability
that exists in Internet Explorer because of the
way that it handles navigation methods. An
attacker could exploit this vulnerability by
constructing a malicious Web page that could
potentially allow remote code execution if a user
visits a malicious Web site.;The Malformed BMP
File Buffer Overrun Vulnerability exists in the
processing of BMP image file formats that could
allow remote code execution on an affected
system.;The Malformed GIF File Double Free
Vulnerability is a buffer overrun vulnerability
that exists in the processing of GIF image file
formats that could allow remote code execution on
an affected system. MS04-025
CriticalThis vulnerability lies in the way the
affected components process JPEG image files. An
unchecked buffer within this process is the cause
of the vulnerability.;This remote code execution
vulnerability could allow a malicious user or a
malware to take complete control of the affected
system if the affected user is currently logged on
with administrative privileges. The malicious user
or malware can execute arbitrary code on the
system giving them the ability to install or run
programs and view or edit data with full
privileges. Thus, this vulnerability can
conceivably be used by a malware for replication
purposes. MS04-028
ImportantAn unchecked buffer exists in the NetDDE
services that could allow remote code execution.
An attacker who is able to successfully exploit
this vulnerability is capable of gaining complete
control over an affected system. However, the
NetDDe services are not automatically executed,
and so would then have to be manually started for
an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. This
vulnerability also allows attackers to perform a
local elevation of privilege, or a remote denial
of service (DoS) attack. MS04-031
CriticalThis cumulative release from Microsoft
covers four newly discovered vulnerabilities:
Windows Management Vulnerability, Virtual DOS
Machine Vulnerability, Graphics Rendering Engine
Vulnerability, and Windows Kernel Vulnerability.
MS04-032
CriticalThis is another privately reported
vulnerability about Windows Compressed Folders.
There is vulnerability on the way that Windows
processes Compressed (Zipped) Folders that could
lead to remote code execution. Windows can not
properly handle the extraction of the ZIP folder
with a very long file name. Opening a specially
crafted compressed file, a stack-based overflow
occurs, enabling the remote user to execute
arbitrary code. MS04-034
CriticalThis security bulletin focuses on the
following vulnerabilities: Shell Vulnerability
(CAN-2004-0214), and Program Group Converter
Vulnerability (CAN-2004-0572). Shell vulnerability
exists on the way Windows Shell launches
applications that could enable remote malicious
user or malware to execute arbitrary code. Windows
Shell function does not properly check the length
of the message before copying to the allocated
buffer. Program Group Converter is an application
used to convert Program Manager Group files that
were produced in Windows 3.1, Windows 3.11,
Windows for Workgroups 3.1, and Windows for
Workgroups 3.11 so that they can still be used by
later operating systems. The vulnerability lies in
an unchecked buffer within the Group Converter
Utility. MS04-037
CriticalThis is a remote code execution
vulnerability that exists in the Internet
Explorer. It allows remote code execution on an
affected system. An attacker could exploit this
vulnerability by constructing a malicious Web
Page. The said routine could allow remote code
execution if a user visited a malicious Web site.
An attacker who successfully exploited this
vulnerability could take complete control of an
affected system. However, significant user
interaction is required to exploit this
vulnerability. MS04-038
CriticalThis security update addresses and
resolves a vulnerability in Internet Explorer that
could allow remote code execution. A Web page can
be crafted to exploit this vulnerability such that
an arbitrary application can be executed on
visiting systems with the same priviledge as the
currently logged on user. MS04-040
ImportantThis security advisory explains the two
discovered vulnerabilities in Microsoft Word for
Windows 6.0 Converter, which is used by WordPad in
converting Word 6.0 to WordPad file format. Once
exploited, this remote code execution
vulnerability could allow a malicious user or a
malware to take complete control of the affected
system if the affected user is currently logged on
with administrative privileges. MS04-041
CriticalA remote code execution vulnerability
exists in HyperTerminal because of a buffer
overrun. If a user is logged on with administrator
privileges, an attacker could exploit the
vulnerability by constructing a malicious
HyperTerminal session file that could potentially
allow remote code execution and then persuade a
user to open this file. This malicious file may
enable the attacker to gain complete control of
the affected system. This vulnerability could also
be exploited through a malicious Telnet URL if
HyperTerminal had been set as the default Telnet
client. MS04-043
ImportantThis security update addresses and
resolves two windows vulnerabilites, both of which
may enable the current user to take control of the
affected system. Both of these vulnerabilites
require that the curernt user be able to log on
locally and execute programs. They cannot be
exploited remotely, or by anonymous users. A
privilege elevation vulnerability exists in the
way that the Windows Kernel launches applications.
This vulnerability could allow the current user to
take complete control of the system. A privilege
elevation vulnerability exists in the way that the
LSASS validates identity tokens. This
vulnerability could allow the current user to take
complete control of the affected system. MS04-044
CriticalThis update resolves a newly-discovered,
publicly reported vulnerability. A vulnerability
exists in the HTML Help ActiveX control in Windows
that could allow information disclosure or remote
code execution on an affected system. MS05-001
CriticalThis update resolves several
newly-discovered, privately reported and public
vulnerabilities. An attacker who successfully
exploited the most severe of these vulnerabilities
could take complete control of an affected system,
install programs, view, change, or delete data, or
create new accounts that have full privileges.
MS05-002
ImportantThis update resolves a newly-discovered,
privately reported vulnerability. An attacker who
successfully exploited this vulnerability could
take complete control of an affected system. An
attacker could then install programs, view,
change, or delete data, or create new accounts
with full privileges. While remote code execution
is possible, an attack would most likely result in
a denial of service condition. MS05-003
ImportantA vulnerability in ASP.NET allows an
attacker to bypass the security of an ASP.NET Web
site, and access a machine. The attacker gains
unauthorized access to some areas of the said Web
site, and is able to control it accordingly. The
actions that the attacker could take would depend
on the specific content being protected. MS05-004
ImportantThis is an information disclosure
vulnerability. An attacker who successfully
exploits this vulnerability could remotely read
the user names for users who have an open
connection to an available shared resource.
MS05-007
ImportantThis remote code execution vulnerability
exists in the way Windows handles drag-and-drop
events. An attacker could exploit the
vulnerability by constructing a malicious Web page
that could potentially allow an attacker to save a
file on the users system if a user visited a
malicious Web site or viewed a malicious e-mail
message. MS05-008
CriticalThis remote code execution vulnerability
exists in the processing of PNG image formats. An
attacker who successfully exploits this
vulnerability could take complete control of an
affected system. MS05-009
CriticalThis remote code execution vulnerability
exists in Server Message Block (SMB). It allows an
attacker who successfully exploits this
vulnerability to take complete control of the
affected system. MS05-011
CriticalThis privilege elevation vulnerability
exists in the way that the affected operating
systems and programs access memory when they
process COM structured storage files. This
vulnerability could grant a currently logged-on
user to take complete control of the system.;This
remote code execution vulnerability exists in OLE
because of the way that it handles input
validation. An attacker could exploit the
vulnerability by constructing a malicious document
that could potentially allow remote code
execution. MS05-012
CriticalThis vulnerability exists in the DHTML
Editing Component ActiveX Control. This
vulnerability could allow information disclosure
or remote code execution on an affected system.
MS05-013
CriticalThis update resolves known vulnerabilities
affecting Internet Explorer. An attacker who
successfully exploits these vulnerabilities could
take complete control of an affected system. An
attacker could then install programs; view,
change, or delete data; or create new accounts
with full user rights. MS05-014
CriticalA remote code execution vulnerability
exists in the Hyperlink Object Library. This
problem exists because of an unchecked buffer
while handling hyperlinks. An attacker could
exploit the vulnerability by constructing a
malicious hyperlink which could potentially lead
to remote code execution if a user clicks a
malicious link within a Web site or e-mail
message. MS05-015
-------------------------
Dont know if this is of any use but I figured better safe then sorry. If everything seems to be ok I will run AdAware and Spybot. In your opinion do you think I should update to SP2? Thanks!
