Description

This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.


1) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2007-1213)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain elevated privileges on vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in the TrueType Fonts rasterizer when processing specially crafted fonts. A local user can create a specially crafted font file, call an uninitialized function pointer and execute arbitrary code on vulnerable system with elevated privileges.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a local user to obtain full access to vulnerable system.


2) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2007-1215)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain elevated privileges on vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in Graphics Rendering Engine when processing certain color-related parameters. A local user create a specially crafted image file and execute arbitrary code on vulnerable system with elevated privileges.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a local user to obtain full access to vulnerable system.


3) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-5586)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain elevated privileges on vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in Graphics Rendering Engine when processing layered application windows. A local user can execute arbitrary code on vulnerable system with elevated privileges.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a local user to obtain full access to vulnerable system.


4) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2007-1212)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain elevated privileges on vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in Graphics Rendering Engine when processing Enhanced Metafile (EMF) image format files. A local user create a specially crafted EMF file and execute arbitrary code on vulnerable system with elevated privileges.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a local user to obtain full access to vulnerable system.


5) Privilege escalation (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-5758)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:P/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a local attacker to obtain elevated privileges on vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists in Graphics Rendering Engine when processing WMF and EMF files. A local user create a specially crafted WMF or EMF file and execute arbitrary code on vulnerable system with elevated privileges.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may allow a local user to obtain full access to vulnerable system.
