WellinTech KingView and KingHistorian Multiple Vulnerabilities
Independent researchers Carlos Hollmand and Dillon Beresford identified multiple vulnerabilities in WellinTech’s KingView and a single vulnerability in WellinTech’s KingHistorian applications. These vulnerabilities can be exploited remotely. WellinTech has created a patch, and the researchers have validated that the patch resolves these vulnerabilities in the KingView and KingHistorian applications.
Wonderware Archestra ConfigurationAccessComponent ActiveX stack overflow
The Wonderware Archestra ConfigurationAccessComponent ActiveX control that is marked “safe for scripting” is suffering from a stack-overflow vulnerability. The UnsubscribeData method of the IConfigurationAccess interface is using wcscpy() to copy its first parameter into a static-sized local buffer. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to overwrite arbitrary stack data and gain code execution.
XBMC File Traversal Vulnerability
XBMC is an award-winning, free, and open source (GPL) software media player and entertainment hub for digital media. XBMC is available for Linux, OSX, and Windows. Created in 2003 by a group of like-minded programmers, XBMC is a nonprofit project run and was developed by volunteers located around the world. More than 50 software developers have contributed to XBMC, and 100-plus translators have worked to expand its reach, making it available in more than 30 languages.
Multiple Vulnerabilities in Fwknop
Fwknop stands for the “FireWall KNock OPerator” and implements an authorization scheme called Single Packet Authorization (SPA). This method of authorization is based on a default-drop packet filter and libpcap. A server might appear to have no open ports available, but it could still grant access to certain services if authorized fwknop packets are received. Companies commonly use this service on exposed systems and need to diminish the attack surface of this service. wknop contains several vulnerabilities. The most critical of these might allow remote, authenticated attackers to leverage flaws…
IBM Informix XML functions overflows
Informix is one of the world’s most widely used database servers, with users ranging from the world’s largest corporations to startups. Informix incorporates design concepts that are significantly different from traditional relational platforms. This results in extremely high levels of performance and availability, distinctive capabilities in data replication and scalability, and minimal administrative overhead. Informix contains two vulnerabilities affecting several versions. Attackers can exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code or cause denial-of-service conditions.
Windows Kernel Library Filename Parsing Vulnerability
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must open or browse to a file or subfolder with a specially crafted name on a network SMB share, UNC share, or WebDAV web folder.
Authentication Bypass In Tranax Remote Management Software
Reported: 04.05.10. The Tranax Remote Management Software (RMS) allows for the administration of common Automated Teller Machine (ATM) tasks from a remote location. To successfully authenticate to a remote ATM, both the serial number and the RMS password are required. An attacker can leverage an implementation flaw that occurs when verifying credentials to craft a request that bypasses all authentication measures. The attacker could then perform remote management tasks with invalid credentials. The RMS interface is enabled, by default, on a typical ATM installation.
SQL Injection and Cross-site Scripting at www.courts.wa.gov
Discovered: 03.18.10. Reported: 03.23.10. The formID parameter at http://www.courts.wa.gov/forms/ is vulnerable to SQL injection. The searchTerms parameter at http://www.courts.wa.gov/search/index.cfm is vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks. Exploiting these vulnerabilities would likely expose sensitive data and may result in compromise of the affected systems.
Multiple Vulnerabilities in Accoria Web Server
Discovered/Reported to Accoria: December 2008. Date Reported to US-Cert: March 1, 2010. The Accoria Web Server 1.4.7 for x86 Solaris exhibits multiple vulnerabilities, including cross-site scripting, directory traversal, and format string errors.
Mach Exception Handling Privilege Escalation
Discovered: 01.05.10. Mach exception handling suffers from a vulnerability that allows an attacker to gain access to the memory of a suid process (set user identifier). Due to a vulnerability that is similar to CVE-2006-4392 (found by Dino Dai Zovi of Matasano Security), it is possible for a suid process to inherit the Mach exception ports of the parent.
