1) CRITICAL: Intel Centrino Wireless Driver Buffer Overflow

Affected:

Intel Centrino 2200BG Wireless Device Driver

 

Description: The Intel Centrino 2200BG is a popular wireless network

(802.11) card, commonly used in laptop computers. Its driver for

Microsoft Windows contains a buffer overflow in its handling of wireless

network traffic. A specially crafted wireless network frame could

trigger this vulnerability, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary

code with kernel level privileges, completely compromising the

vulnerable system. The wireless network interface on the vulnerable

system need only be in range of the attacker; it need not be connected

to any particular wireless network to be vulnerable. Full technical

details and a proof-of-concept are publicly available for this

vulnerability.

 

Status: Intel confirmed, updates available. The patch can be accessed

through Intel site reverenced below.

TITLE:

ICQ Personal Status Processing Buffer Overflow

 

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

SA29821

 

VERIFY ADVISORY:

http://secunia.com/advisories/29821/

 

CRITICAL:

Highly critical

 

IMPACT:

System access

 

WHERE:

From remote

 

SOFTWARE:

ICQ 6.x

http://secunia.com/product/14880/

 

DESCRIPTION:

Leon Juranic has reported a vulnerability in ICQ, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise another user's system.

 

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing "Personal Statuses" set via the "Personal Status Manager" menu. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by creating a specially crafted personal status and e.g. sending a message to another user.

 

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

 

The vulnerability is reported in version 6 build 6043. Other versions may also be affected.

 

SOLUTION:

The vendor has reportedly issued a fix via automatic updates.

TITLE:

Mozilla Firefox Multiple Vulnerabilities

 

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:

SA30911

 

VERIFY ADVISORY:

http://secunia.com/advisories/30911/

 

CRITICAL:

Highly critical

 

IMPACT:

Security Bypass, Cross Site Scripting, Spoofing, Exposure of system information, Exposure of sensitive information, DoS, System access

 

WHERE:

From remote

 

REVISION:

1.1 originally posted 2008-07-02

 

SOFTWARE:

Mozilla Firefox 2.0.x

http://secunia.com/product/12434/

 

DESCRIPTION:

Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Mozilla Firefox, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting and spoofing attacks, bypass certain security restrictions, disclose sensitive information, or potentially compromise a user's system.

 

1) Multiple errors in the layout and JavaScript engines can be exploited to corrupt memory.

 

2) An error in the handling of unprivileged XUL documents can be exploited to load Chrome scripts from a "fastload" file via "<script>" elements.

 

3) An error in the "mozIJSSubScriptLoader.LoadScript()" function can be exploited to bypass XPCNativeWrappers and run arbitrary code with Chrome privileges.

 

Successful exploitation requires that an add-on using the affected function is installed.

 

4) An error in the block reflow process can be exploited to cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code.

 

5) An error in the processing of file URLs contained within local directory listings can potentially be exploited to execute malicious JavaScript content.

 

6) Multiple errors in the implementation of the JavaScript same origin policy can be exploited to execute arbitrary script code in the context of a different domain.

 

7) Multiple errors in the verification of signed JAR files can be exploited to execute arbitrary JavaScript code with the privileges of the JAR's signer.

 

8) An error in the implementation of file upload forms can be exploited to upload arbitrary local files to a remote webserver via specially crafted "DOM Range" and "originalTarget" elements.

 

9) An error in the Java LiveConnect implementation on Mac OS X can be exploited to establish arbitrary socket connections.

 

10) An uninitialized memory access in the processing of improperly encoded ".properties" files can potentially be exploited to disclose sensitive memory via an add-on using the malformed file.

 

11) An error in the processing of "Alt Names" provided by "peer"

trusted certificates can be exploited to conduct spoofing attacks.

 

12) An error in the processing of Windows URL shortcuts can be exploited to run a remote site as a local file.

 

Successful exploitation requires that the user is tricked into downloading and then opening a malicious Windows URL shortcut.

 

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 2.0.0.15.

 

SOLUTION:

Update to version 2.0.0.15.
