Mandriva Linux Security Advisory - Buffer overflow in the LWZReadByte() function in gd_gif_in.c in GD prior to 2.0.34 allows remote attackers to have an unknown impact via a GIF file with input_code_size greater than MAX_LWZ_BITS, which triggers an overflow when initializing the table array. This was originally fixed in PHP's embedded GD with MDKSA-2006:162; patches had not been applied to the system libgd at that time.

iDefense Security Advisory 02.08.08 - Remote exploitation of an insecure method exposed by the JavaScript library in Adobe Reader and Acrobat could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as the current user. Adobe Reader and Acrobat implement a version of JavaScript in the EScript.api plug-in which is based on the reference implementation used in Mozilla products. One of the methods exposed allows direct control over low level features of the object, which in turn allows execution of arbitrary code. iDefense has confirmed this vulnerability exists in Adobe Reader 8.1 on Windows XP SP2. It is likely that other Adobe products that handle PDF files, including previous versions of Adobe Reader, are also affected.

Gentoo Linux Security Advisory GLSA 200802-02 - Luigi Auriemma discovered multiple buffer overflows in the D_NetPlayerEvent() function, the Msg_Write() function and the NetSv_ReadCommands() function. He also discovered errors when handling chat messages that are not NULL-terminated (CVE-2007-4642) or contain a short data length, triggering an integer underflow (CVE-2007-4643). Furthermore a format string vulnerability was discovered in the Cl_GetPackets() function when processing PSV_CONSOLE_TEXT messages (CVE-2007-4644). Versions less than or equal to 1.9.0-beta5.2 are affected.

Description:

iDefense Security Advisory 02.08.08 - Remote exploitation of multiple stack-based buffer overflows in JavaScript methods in Adobe Reader and Acrobat could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as the current user. These issues exist due to insufficient input validation in several JavaScript methods. Inadequate checking is performed on the string length before it is copied into a fixed sized buffer on the stack. If an attacker supplies a long string, control structures on the stack may be modified, allowing the execution of arbitrary code. iDefense has confirmed these vulnerabilities exist in Adobe Reader 8.1 on Windows XP SP2. It is likely that other Adobe products that handle PDF files, including previous versions of Adobe Reader, are also affected.

Description:

iDefense Security Advisory 02.12.08 - Remote exploitation of a heap corruption vulnerability in Microsoft Corp.'s Works Converter, as included with Microsoft Office, could potentially allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code as the current user. This vulnerability stems from improper input validation of OLE structures within wkcvqd01.dll when converting a Microsoft Works document (WPS extension) to Rich Text Format (RTF). When certain fields are modified, such as the length or count values, heap corruption can occur. This leads to a potentially exploitable condition. iDefense has confirmed that wkcvqd01.dll version 7.03.0616.0, as included with Microsoft Office 2003, is vulnerable to this issue. Older versions are assumed to be vulnerable as well. Additionally, Microsoft Works itself is suspected to be vulnerable.

iDefense Security Advisory 02.12.08 - Remote exploitation of a buffer overflow vulnerability in Microsoft Corp.'s Works Converter allows attackers to execute arbitrary code as the current user. This vulnerability stems from improper input validation of section length headers when converting a Microsoft Works document (WPS extension) to Rich Text Format (RTF). When certain fields are modified, such as the length or count values, a stack-based buffer overflow occurs. This leads to a directly exploitable condition. iDefense confirmed that wkcvqd01.dll version 7.03.0616.0, as included with Microsoft Office 2003, is vulnerable. Older versions of Microsoft Office as well as Microsoft Works are also assumed vulnerable.

iDefense Security Advisory 02.26.08 - Remote exploitation of a heap based buffer overflow vulnerability in Mozilla Organization's Thunderbird could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the current user. The vulnerability exists when parsing the external-body MIME type in an electronic mail. When calculating the number of bytes to allocate for a heap buffer, sufficient space is not reserved for all of the data being copied into the buffer. This results in up to 3 bytes of the buffer being overflowed, potentially allowing for the execution of arbitrary code. iDefense has confirmed the existence of this vulnerability in Thunderbird version 2.0.0.9 on Linux and Windows. Previous versions may also be affected.
