CVSS v3.1 |
| The document processing application used by the Windows Shell in Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by modifying the CLSID stored in a file so that it is processed by HTML Application Host (MSHTA), as demonstrated using a Microsoft Word document. |
| The Web View DLL (webvw.dll), as used in Windows Explorer on Windows 2000 systems, does not properly filter an apostrophe ("'") in the author name in a document, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary script via extra attributes when Web View constructs a mailto: link for the preview pane when the user selects the file. |
| Microsoft Agent allows remote attackers to spoof trusted Internet content and execute arbitrary code by disguising security prompts on a malicious Web page. |
| The Microsoft Windows network stack allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of malformed ARP request packets with random source IP and MAC addresses, as demonstrated by ARPNuke. |
| Buffer overflow in the ZIP capability for multiple products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via ZIP files containing entries with long filenames, including (1) Microsoft Windows 98 with Plus! Pack, (2) Windows XP, (3) Windows ME, (4) Lotus Notes R4 through R6 (pre-gold), (5) Verity KeyView, and (6) Stuffit Expander before 7.0. |
| A system does not present an appropriate legal message or warning to a user who is accessing it. |
| Multihomed Windows systems allow a remote attacker to bypass IP source routing restrictions via a malformed packet with IP options, aka the "Spoofed Route Pointer" vulnerability. |
| The (1) CertGetCertificateChain, (2) CertVerifyCertificateChainPolicy, and (3) WinVerifyTrust APIs within the CryptoAPI for Microsoft products including Microsoft Windows 98 through XP, Office for Mac, Internet Explorer for Mac, and Outlook Express for Mac, do not properly verify the Basic Constraints of intermediate CA-signed X.509 certificates, which allows remote attackers to spoof the certificates of trusted sites via a man-in-the-middle attack for SSL sessions, as originally reported for Internet Explorer and IIS. |
| Internet Explorer in Windows XP SP2, and other versions including 5.01 and 5.5, allows remote attackers to install arbitrary programs via a web page that uses certain styles and the AnchorClick behavior, popup windows, and drag-and-drop capabilities to drop the program in the local startup folder, as demonstrated by "wottapoop.html". |
| The DHTML Edit Control (dhtmled.ocx) allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script into other domains by setting a name for a window, opening a child page whose target is the window with the given name, then injecting the script from the parent into the child using execScript, as demonstrated by "AbusiveParent" in Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180. |
| Various TCP/IP stacks and network applications allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service by flooding a target host with TCP connection attempts and completing the TCP/IP handshake without maintaining the connection state on the attacker host, aka the "NAPTHA" class of vulnerabilities. NOTE: this candidate may change significantly as the security community discusses the technical nature of NAPTHA and learns more about the affected applications. This candidate is at a higher level of abstraction than is typical for CVE. |
| Integer overflow in the PolyPolygon function in Graphics Rendering Engine on Microsoft Windows 98 and Me allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Windows Metafile (WMF) or EMF image with a sum of entries in the vertext counts array and number of polygons that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. |
| Remote attackers can perform a denial of service in Windows machines using malicious ARP packets, forcing a message box display for each packet or filling up log files. |
| A remote attacker can disable the virus warning mechanism in Microsoft Excel 97. |
| Buffer overflow in Microsoft Telnet client in Windows 95 and Windows 98 via a malformed Telnet argument. |
| The Windows help system can allow a local user to execute commands as another user by editing a table of contents metafile with a .CNT extension and modifying the topic action to include the commands to be executed when the .hlp file is accessed. |
| A legacy credential caching mechanism used in Windows 95 and Windows 98 systems allows attackers to read plaintext network passwords. |
| Windows 95 and Windows 98 do not properly process spoofed ARP packets, which allows remote attackers to overwrite static entries in the cache table. |
| Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) on Windows 98, 98SE, ME, and XP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via (1) a spoofed SSDP advertisement that causes the client to connect to a service on another machine that generates a large amount of traffic (e.g., chargen), or (2) via a spoofed SSDP announcement to broadcast or multicast addresses, which could cause all UPnP clients to send traffic to a single target system. |
| Double free vulnerability in the ASN.1 library as used in Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code. |
