Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| Microsoft updated this bulletin on May 11, 2004 to advise on the availability of a revised version of the security update for non-English versions of Windows XP (as opposed to Windows XP Service Pack 1). The original update does address the vulnerability in Windows XP for all supported languages; however, the original update was not fully localized. Specifically, optional Jet error strings were only being offered in English on Windows XP. This issue does not affect other operating systems. If you have previously applied the security update for other operating systems, including Windows XP Service Pack 1, you need not take any additional action.
If you have previously applied the security update for non-English versions of Windows XP (as opposed to Windows XP Service Pack 1), you need not take any additional action as you are already protected from this vulnerability. However, if you want to have the Jet optional text error information in the same language as your Windows XP installation, you will need to remove the original security update MS04-014 (837001) following the Removal Information procedure located in this document and install the revised version. Once 837001 is uninstalled, revisiting Windows Update will result in the revised MS04-014 security update for Windows XP being re-offered with the correct, localized, optional text error strings.
The following files, on non-English systems only, were updated as part of this update: |

Title: Vulnerability in Windows Media Services Could Allow a Denial of Service (832359) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
A vulnerability exists because of the way that Windows Media Station Service and Windows Media Monitor Service, components of Windows Media Services, handle TCP/IP connections. If a remote user were to send a specially-crafted sequence of TCP/IP packets to the listening port of either of these services, the service could stop responding to requests and no additional connections could be made. The service must be restarted to regain its functionality.
Windows Media Services is made up of Windows Media Services Administrator and four Windows Media Services components running on a single computer:
By using Windows Media Unicast Service, Windows Media content can be streamed over unicast, using either TCP or UDP as a transport, to Microsoft Windows Media Player or to another Windows Media server.
Windows Media Station Service performs three key functions:| • | It arranges one or more streams of content (also known as a "playlist" or "program") for subsequent streaming. | | • | It multicasts the playlist or program to Windows Media Player or to another Windows Media server. | | • | It distributes the playlist or program locally to Windows Media Unicast Service for subsequent unicasting to Windows Media Player or to another Windows Media server. |
Windows Media Program Service is a dependent service of Windows Media Station Service. Windows Media Program Service helps the server administrator build playlists of Windows Media content using Windows Media Services Administrator and persist those playlists for future use.
Windows Media Monitor Service is the administrative console of Windows Media Services.

Title: Vulnerability in the Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) Could Allow Code Execution (830352)
|
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| A security vulnerability exists in the Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS). This vulnerability exists because of the method that WINS uses to validate the length of specially-crafted packets. On Windows Server 2003 this vulnerability could allow an attacker who sent a series of specially-crafted packets to a WINS server to cause the service to fail. Most likely, this could cause a denial of service, and the service would have to be manually restarted to restore functionality.
The possibility of a denial of service on Windows Server 2003 results from the presence of a security feature that is used in the development of Windows Server 2003. This security feature detects when an attempt is made to exploit a stack-based buffer overrun and reduces the chance that it can be easily exploited. This security feature can be forced to terminate the service to prevent malicious code execution. On Windows Server 2003, when an attempt is made to exploit the buffer overrun, the security feature reacts and terminates the service. This results in a denial of service condition of WINS. Because it is possible that methods may be found in the future to bypass this security feature, which could then enable code execution, customers should apply the update. For more information about these security features, visit the following Web site.
On Windows NT and Windows 2000, the nature of the vulnerability is slightly different. WINS will reject the specially-crafted packet and the attack does not result in a denial of service. The vulnerability on these platforms also does not allow code execution. Microsoft is releasing a security update for these platforms that corrects the vulnerable code as a preventive measure to help protect these platforms in case methods are found in the future to exploit this vulnerability.

This is a cumulative patch that includes the functionality of all previously released patches for Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0. In addition, it eliminates the following newly discovered vulnerabilities:| • | A vulnerability that occurs because Internet Explorer does not properly determine an object type returned from a Web server in a popup window. It could be possible for an attacker who exploited this vulnerability to run arbitrary code on a user's system. If a user visited an attacker's Web site, it could be possible for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability without any other user action. An attacker could also craft an HTML-based e-mail that would attempt to exploit this vulnerability. | | • | A vulnerability that occurs because Internet Explorer does not properly determine an object type returned from a Web server during XML data binding. It could be possible for an attacker who exploited this vulnerability to run arbitrary code on a user's system. If a user visited an attacker's Web site, it could be possible for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability without any other user action. An attacker could also craft an HTML-based e-mail that would attempt to exploit this vulnerability. |
In addition, a change has been made to the method by which Internet Explorer handles Dynamic HTML (DHTML) Behaviors in the Internet Explorer Restricted Zone. It could be possible for an attacker exploiting a separate vulnerability (such as one of the two vulnerabilities discussed above) to cause Internet Explorer to run script code in the security context of the Internet Zone. In addition, an attacker could use Windows Media Player's (WMP) ability to open URLs to construct an attack. An attacker could also craft an HTML-based e-mail that could attempt to exploit this behavior.
To exploit these flaws, the attacker would have to create a specially formed HTML-based e-mail and send it to the user. Alternatively an attacker would have to host a malicious Web site that contained a Web page designed to exploit these vulnerabilities.
As with the previous Internet Explorer cumulative patches released with bulletins MS03-004, MS03-015, MS03-020, and MS03-032, this cumulative patch will cause window.showHelp( ) to cease to function if you have not applied the HTML Help update. If you have installed the updated HTML Help control from Knowledge Base article 811630, you will still be able to use HTML Help functionality after applying this patch.
In addition to applying this security patch it is recommended that users also install the Windows Media Player update referenced in Knowledge Base Article 828026. This update is available from Windows Update as well as the Microsoft Download Center for all supported versions of Windows Media Player. While not a security patch, this update contains a change to the behavior of Windows Media Player's ability to launch URLs to help protect against DHTML behavior based attacks. Specifically, it restricts Windows Media Player's ability to launch URLs in the local computer zone from other zones.

Title: Buffer Overrun In RPCSS Service Could Allow Code Execution (824146) |
Update Type: Security Update |

| The fix provided by this patch supersedes the one included in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-026 and includes the fix for the security vulnerability discussed in MS03-026, as well as 3 newly discovered vulnerabilities.
Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a protocol used by the Windows operating system. RPC provides an inter-process communication mechanism that allows a program running on one computer to seamlessly access services on another computer. The protocol itself is derived from the Open Software Foundation (OSF) RPC protocol, but with the addition of some Microsoft specific extensions.
There are three newly identified vulnerabilities in the part of RPCSS Service that deals with RPC messages for DCOM activation- two that could allow arbitrary code execution and one that could result in a denial of service. The flaws result from incorrect handling of malformed messages. These particular vulnerabilities affect the Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) interface within the RPCSS Service. This interface handles DCOM object activation requests that are sent from one machine to another.
An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could be able to run code with Local System privileges on an affected system, or could cause the RPCSS Service to fail. The attacker could then be able to take any action on the system, including installing programs, viewing, changing or deleting data, or creating new accounts with full privileges.
To exploit these vulnerabilities, an attacker could create a program to send a malformed RPC message to a vulnerable system targeting the RPCSS Service.

Title: Flaw in NetBIOS Could Lead to Information Disclosure (824105) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Low |
| Subsequent to the original release of this bulletin Microsoft extended the support of Windows NT Workstation 4.0 and Windows 2000 Service Pack 2. A security update is now available from Microsoft Product Support Services for customers running these operating systems. Contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain these additional security updates.
Network basic input/output system (NetBIOS) is an application programming interface (API) that can be used by programs on a local area network (LAN). NetBIOS provides programs with a uniform set of commands for requesting the lower-level services required to manage names, conduct sessions, and send datagrams between nodes on a network.
This vulnerability involves one of the NetBT (NetBIOS over TCP) services, namely, the NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS). NBNS is analogous to DNS in the TCP/IP world and it provides a way to find a system's IP address given its NetBIOS name, or vice versa.
Under certain conditions, the response to a NetBT Name Service query may, in addition to the typical reply, contain random data from the target system's memory. This data could, for example, be a segment of HTML if the user on the target system was using an Internet browser, or it could contain other types of data that exist in memory at the time that the target system responds to the NetBT Name Service query.
An attacker could seek to exploit this vulnerability by sending a NetBT Name Service query to the target system and then examine the response to see if it included any random data from that system's memory.
If best security practices have been followed and port 137 UDP has been blocked at the firewall, Internet based attacks would not be possible.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in MDAC Function Could Enable System Compromise (823718) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) is a collection of components that are used to provide database connectivity on Windows platforms. MDAC is a ubiquitous technology, and it is likely to be present on most Windows systems: | • | By default, MDAC is included by default as part of Microsoft Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium Edition, and Windows Server 2003. (It is worth noting, though, that the version that is installed by Windows Server 2003 does not have this vulnerability). | | • | MDAC is available for download as a stand-alone technology. | | • | MDAC is either included in or installed by a number of other products and technologies. For example, MDAC is included in the Microsoft Windows NT® 4.0 Option Pack and in Microsoft SQL Server 2000. Additionally, some MDAC components are present as part of Microsoft Internet Explorer even when MDAC itself is not installed. |
MDAC provides the underlying functionality for a number of database operations, such as connecting to remote databases and returning data to a client. When a client system on a network tries to see a list of computers that are running SQL Server and that reside on the network, it sends a broadcast request to all the devices that are on the network. Due to a flaw in a specific MDAC component, an attacker could respond to this request with a specially crafted packet that could cause a buffer overflow.
An attacker who successfully exploited this flaw could gain the same level of privileges over the system as the application that initiated the broadcast request. The actions an attacker could carry out would be dependent on the permissions which the application using MDAC ran under. If the application ran with limited privileges, an attacker would be limited accordingly; however, if the application ran under the local system context, the attacker would have the same level of permissions. This could include creating, modifying, or deleting data on the system, or reconfiguring the system. This could also include reformatting the hard disk or running programs of the attacker's choice.
This bulletin supercedes the patch discussed in MS02-040. Customers should install this patch as it contains both the fix for the vulnerability discussed in bulletin MS02-040 and the patch discussed in this bulletin.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in DirectX Could Enable System Compromise (819696) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Subsequent to the original release of this bulletin, customers requested that we support additional versions of DirectX that were not covered by the original patches. This bulletin has been updated to provide information about a new patch, which is intended for customers using Windows 98, Windows 98 SE, Windows Millennium Edition, or Windows 2000 who have upgraded to Microsoft DirectX 8.0, 8.0a, 8.1, 8.1a, or 8.1b.
DirectX consists of a set of low-level Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) that are used by Windows programs for multimedia support. Within DirectX, the DirectShow technology performs client-side audio and video sourcing, manipulation, and rendering.
There are two buffer overruns with identical effects in the function used by DirectShow to check parameters in a Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) file. A security vulnerability results because it could be possible for a malicious user to attempt to exploit these flaws and execute code in the security context of the logged-on user.
An attacker could seek to exploit this vulnerability by creating a specially crafted MIDI file designed to exploit this vulnerability and then host it on a Web site or on a network share, or send it by using an HTML-based e-mail. In the case where the file was hosted on a Web site or network share, the user would need to open the specially crafted file. If the file was embedded in a page the vulnerability could be exploited when a user visited the Web page. In the HTML-based e-mail case, the vulnerability could be exploited when a user opened or previewed the HTML-based e-mail. A successful attack could cause DirectShow, or an application making use of DirectShow, to fail. A successful attack could also cause an attacker's code to run on the user's computer in the security context of the user.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Windows Shell Could Enable System Compromise (821557) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| The Windows shell is responsible for providing the basic framework of the Windows user interface experience. It is most familiar to users as the Windows desktop. It also provides a variety of other functions to help define the user's computing session, including organizing files and folders, and providing the means to start programs.
An unchecked buffer exists in one of the functions used by the Windows shell to extract custom attribute information from certain folders. A security vulnerability results because it is possible for a malicious user to construct an attack that could exploit this flaw and execute code on the user's system.
An attacker could seek to exploit this vulnerability by creating a Desktop.ini file that contains a corrupt custom attribute, and then host it on a network share. If a user were to browse the shared folder where the file was stored, the vulnerability could then be exploited. A successful attack could have the effect of either causing the Windows shell to fail, or causing an attacker's code to run on the user's computer in the security context of the user.

Title: Buffer Overrun In RPC Interface Could Allow Code Execution (823980) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Microsoft originally released this bulletin and patch on July 16, 2003 to correct a security vulnerability in a Windows Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) Remote Procedure Call (RPC) interface. Subsequent to the release of this bulletin Microsoft has been made aware that additional ports involving RPC can be used to exploit this vulnerability. Information regarding these additional ports has been added to the mitigating factors and the Workaround section of the bulletin. In addition, Microsoft has released security bulletin MS03-039 and an updated scanning tool which supersedes this bulletin and the original scanning tool provided with it.
The updated tool provided with MS03-039 supersedes the one provided in Microsoft Knowledge Base article 826369. If the tool originally provided with this bulletin is used against a system which has installed the security patch provided MS03-039, the outdated tool will incorrectly report that the system is missing the patch provided in MS03-026.

A security update is now available from Microsoft Product Support Services for customers running Windows 2000 Service Pack 2. Contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain this additional security update.
Microsoft Windows 2000 contains support for Accessibility options within the operating system. Accessibility support is a series of assistive technologies within Windows that allow users with disabilities to still be able to access the functions of the operating system. Accessibility support is enabled or disabled through shortcuts built into the operating system, or through the Accessibility Utility Manager. Utility Manager is an accessibility utility that allows users to check the status of accessibility programs (Microsoft Magnifier, Narrator, On-Screen Keyboard) and to start or stop them.
There is a flaw in the way that Utility Manager handles Windows messages. Windows messages provide a way for interactive processes to react to user events (for example, keystrokes or mouse movements) and communicate with other interactive processes. A security vulnerability results because the control that provides the list of accessibility options to the user does not properly validate Windows messages sent to it. It's possible for one process in the interactive desktop to use a specific Windows message to cause the Utility Manager process to execute a callback function at the address of its choice. Because the Utility Manager process runs at higher privileges than the first process, this would provide the first process with a way of exercising those higher privileges.
By default, the Utility Manager contains controls that run in the interactive desktop with Local System privileges. As a result, an attacker who had the ability to log on to a system interactively could potentially run a program that could send a specially crafted Windows message upon the Utility Manager process, causing it to take any action the attacker specified. This would give the attacker complete control over the system.
The attack cannot be exploited remotely, and the attacker would have to have the ability to interactively log on to the system.

Server Message Block (SMB) is the Internet Standard protocol that Windows uses to share files, printers, serial ports, and to communicate between computers using named pipes and mail slots. In a networked environment, servers make file systems and resources available to clients. Clients make SMB requests for resources, and servers make SMB responses in what's described as a client server request-response protocol.
A flaw exists in the way that the server validates the parameters of an SMB packet. When a client system sends an SMB packet to the server system, it includes specific parameters that provide the server with a set of "instructions." In this case, the server is not properly validating the buffer length established by the packet. If the client specifies a buffer length that is less than what is needed, it can cause the buffer to be overrun.
By sending a specially crafted SMB packet request, an attacker could cause a buffer overrun to occur. If exploited, this could lead to data corruption, system failure, or-in the worst case-it could allow an attacker to run the code of their choice. An attacker would need a valid user account and would need to be authenticated by the server to exploit this flaw.

All versions of Microsoft Windows contain support for file conversion within the operating system. This functionality allows users of Microsoft Windows to convert file formats from one to another. In particular, Microsoft Windows contains support for HTML conversion within the operating system. This functionality allows users to view, import, or save files as HTML.
There is a flaw in the way the HTML converter for Microsoft Windows handles a conversion request during a cut-and-paste operation. This flaw causes a security vulnerability to exist. A specially crafted request to the HTML converter could cause the converter to fail in such a way that it could execute code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Because this functionality is used by Internet Explorer, an attacker could craft a specially formed Web page or HTML e-mail that would cause the HTML converter to run arbitrary code on a user's system. A user visiting an attacker's Web site could allow the attacker to exploit the vulnerability without any other user action.
To exploit this vulnerability, the attacker would have to create a specially-formed HTML e-mail and send it to the user. Alternatively, an attacker would have to host a malicious Web site that contains a Web page designed to exploit this vulnerability. The attacker would then have to persuade a user to visit that site.

Title: Vulnerability in ISAPI Extension for Windows Media Services Could Cause Code Execution (822343) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| Microsoft Windows Media Services is a feature of Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server and is also available in a downloadable version for Windows NT 4.0 Server. Windows Media Services contains support for a method of delivering media content to clients across a network known as multicast streaming. In multicast streaming, the server has no connection to or knowledge of the clients that may be receiving the stream of media content coming from the server. To facilitate logging of client information for the server, Windows 2000 includes a capability specifically designed to enable logging for multicast transmissions.
This logging capability is implemented as an Internet Services Application Programming Interface (ISAPI) extension - nsiislog.dll. When Windows Media Services are added through add/remove programs to Windows 2000, nsiislog.dll is installed in the Internet Information Services (IIS) Scripts directory on the server. Once Windows Media Services is installed, nsiislog.dll is automatically loaded and used by IIS.
There is a flaw in the way nsiislog.dll processes incoming client requests. A vulnerability exists because an attacker could send specially formed HTTP request (communications) to the server that could cause IIS to fail or execute code on the user's system.
Windows Media Services is not installed by default on Windows 2000. An attacker attempting to exploit this vulnerability would have to be aware which computers on the network had Windows Media Services installed on it and send a specific request to that server.

Title: Flaw In Windows Media Player May Allow Media Library Access (819639) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
| An ActiveX control included with Windows Media Player 9 Series allows Web page authors to create Web pages that can play media and provide a user interface by which the user can control playback. When a user visits a Web page with embedded media, the ActiveX control provides a user interface that allows the user to take such actions as pausing or rewinding the media.
A flaw exists in the way in which the ActiveX control provides access to information on the user's computer. A vulnerability exists because an attacker could invoke the ActiveX control from script code, which would allow the attacker to view and manipulate metadata contained in the media library on the user's computer.
To exploit this flaw, an attacker would have to host a malicious Web site that contained a Web page designed to exploit this vulnerability, and then persuade a user to visit that site-an attacker would have no way to force a user to the site. An attacker could also embed a link to the malicious site in an HTML e-mail and send it to the user. After the user previewed or opened the e-mail, the malicious site could be visited automatically without further user interaction.
The attacker would only have access to manipulate the media library on the user's computer. The attacker would not be able to browse the user's hard disk and would not have access to passwords or encrypted data. The attacker would not be able to modify files on the user's hard disk, but could modify the contents of any Media Library entries associated with those files. The attacker might also be able to determine the user name of the logged-on user by examining the directory paths to media files.

An attacker who was able to lure a user into clicking a link on his or her web site could relay a request containing script to a third-party web site running IIS, thereby causing the third-party site's response (still including the script) to be sent to the user. The script would then render using the security settings of the third-party site rather than the attacker's. | | • | A buffer overrun that results because IIS 5.0 does not correctly validate requests for certain types of web pages known as server side includes. An attacker would need the ability to upload a Server-side include page to a vulnerable IIS server. If the attacker then requested this page, a buffer overrun could result, which would allow the attacker to execute code of their choice on the server with system-level permissions. | | • | A denial of service vulnerability that results because of a flaw in the way IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allocate memory requests when constructing headers to be returned to a web client. An attacker would need the ability to upload an ASP page to a vulnerable IIS server. This ASP page, when called by the attacker, would attempt to return an extremely large header to the calling web client. Because IIS does not limit the amount of memory that can be used in this case, this could case IIS to fail as a result of running out of local memory. | | • | A denial of service vulnerability that results because IIS 5.0 and 5.1 do not correctly handle an error condition when an overly long WebDAV request is passed to them. As a result an attacker could cause IIS to fail - however both IIS 5.0 and 5.1 will by default restart immediately after this failure. |
There is a dependency associated with this patch - it requires the patch from Microsoft Security Bulletin MS02-050 to be installed. If this patch is installed and MS02-050 is not present, client side certificates will be rejected. This functionality can be restored by installing the MS02-050 patch.

Title: Flaw in Windows Media Player Skins Downloading could allow Code Execution (817787) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Microsoft Windows Media Player provides functionality to change the overall appearance of the player itself through the use of "skins". Skins are custom overlays that consist of collections of one or more files of computer art, organized by an XML file. The XML file tells Windows Media Player how to use these files to display a skin as the user interface. In this manner, the user can choose from a variety of standard skins, each one providing an additional visual experience. Windows Media Player comes with several skins to choose from, but it is relatively easy to create and distribute custom skins.
A flaw exists in the way Windows Media Player 7.1 and Windows Media Player for Windows XP handle the download of skin files. The flaw means that an attacker could force a file masquerading as a skin file into a known location on a user's machine. This could allow an attacker to place a malicious executable on the system.
In order to exploit this flaw, an attacker would have to host a malicious web site that contained a web page designed to exploit this particular vulnerability and then persuade a user to visit that site - an attacker would have no way to force a user to the site. An attacker could also embed the link in an HTML e-mail and send it to the user.
In the case of an e-mail borne attack, if the user was using Outlook Express 6.0 or Outlook 2002 in their default configurations, or Outlook 98 or 2000 in conjunction with the Outlook Email Security Update, then an attack could not be automated and the user would still need to click on a URL sent in the e-mail. However if the user was not using Outlook Express 6.0 or Outlook 2002 in their default configurations, or Outlook 98 or 2000 in conjunction with the Outlook Email Security Update, the attacker could cause an attack that could both place, then launch the malicious executable without the user having to click on a URL contained in an e-mail.
The attacker's code would run with the same privileges as the user: any restrictions on the user's ability to change the system would apply to the attacker's code.

Title: Cumulative Patch for Outlook Express (330994) |
Update Type: Unknown Type |
Severity: Critical |
| MHTML stands for MIME Encapsulation of Aggregate HTML. MHTML is an Internet standard that defines the MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) structure used to send HTML content in e-mail message bodies. The MHTML URL Handler in Windows is part of Outlook Express and provides a URL type that can be used on the local machine. This URL type (MHTML://) allows MHTML documents to be launched from a command line, from Start/Run, using Windows Explorer or from within Internet Explorer.
A vulnerability exists in the MHTML URL Handler that allows any file that can be rendered as text to be opened and rendered as part of a page in Internet Explorer. As a result, it would be possible to construct a URL that referred to a text file that was stored on the local computer and have that file render as HTML. If the text file contained script, that script would execute when the file was accessed. Since the file would reside on the local computer, it would be rendered in the Local Computer Security Zone. Files that are opened within the Local Computer Zone are subject to fewer restrictions than files opened in other security zones.
Using this method, an attacker could attempt to construct a URL and either host it on a website or send it via email. In the web based scenario, where a user then clicked on a URL hosted on a website, an attacker could have the ability to read or launch files already present on the local machine. In the case of an e-mail borne attack, if the user was using Outlook Express 6.0 or Outlook 2002 in their default configurations, or Outlook 98 or 2000 in conjunction with the Outlook Email Security Update, then an attack could not be automated and the user would still need to click on a URL sent in the e-mail. However if the user was not using Outlook Express 6.0 or Outlook 2002 in their default configurations, or Outlook 98 or 2000 in conjunction with the Outlook Email Security Update, the attacker could cause an attack to trigger automatically without the user having to click on a URL contained in an e-mail. In both the web based and e-mail based cases, any limitations on the user's privileges would also restrict the capabilities of the attacker's script.
Applying the update listed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-004 -- Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer-will help block an attacker from being able to load a file onto a user's computer and prevent the passing of parameters to an executable. This means that an attacker could only launch a program that already existed on the computer-provided the attacker was aware of the location of the program-and would not be able to pass parameters to the program for it to execute.
MHTML is a standard for exchanging HTML content in e-mail and as a result the MHTML URL Handler function has been implemented in Outlook Express. Internet Explorer can also render MHTML content, however the MHTML function has not been implemented separately in Internet Explorer - it simply uses Outlook Express to render the MHTML content.

Title: Buffer Overrun in Windows Kernel Message Handling could Lead to Elevated Privileges (811493) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| Microsoft re-issued this bulletin on May 28, 2003 to advise on the availability of an updated Windows XP Service Pack 1 patch. This revised patch corrects the performance issues that some customers experienced with the original Windows XP Service Pack 1 patch.
Microsoft originally issued this bulletin on April 16, 2003. Subsequent to that date, Microsoft received reports of performance problems with the patch from some Windows XP Service Pack 1 customers. This original Windows XP Service Pack 1 patch did address the security vulnerability discussed in this security bulletin. Microsoft investigated this performance issue and confirmed that there could be performance problems when the original patch was applied to Windows XP Service Pack 1 systems. Microsoft has published a Knowledge Base article, 819634, that describes the known circumstances that can cause the performance problems to manifest themselves with the original patch. Microsoft has subsequentially re-issued the Windows XP Service Pack 1 patch to correct the performance problems. This revised patch can be downloaded from the locations described later in this bulletin.
The Windows kernel is the core of the operating system. It provides system level services such as device and memory management, allocates processor time to processes and manages error handling. There is a flaw in the way the kernel passes error messages to a debugger. A vulnerability results because an attacker could write a program to exploit this flaw and run code of their choice. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to take any action on the system including deleting data, adding accounts with administrative access, or reconfiguring the system.
For an attack to be successful, an attacker would need to be able to logon interactively to the system, either at the console or through a terminal session. Also, a successful attack would require the introduction of code in order to exploit this vulnerability. Because best practices recommends restricting the ability to logon interactively on servers, this issue most directly affects client systems and terminal servers.

Title: Flaw in Microsoft VM Could Enable System Compromise (816093) |
Update Type: Unknown Type |
Severity: Critical |
| The Microsoft VM is a virtual machine for the Win32® operating environment. The Microsoft VM is shipped in most versions of Windows (a complete list is available in the FAQ), as well as in most versions of Internet Explorer.
The present Microsoft VM, which includes all previously released fixes to the VM, has been updated to include a fix for the newly reported security vulnerability. This new security vulnerability affects the ByteCode Verifier component of the Microsoft VM, and results because the ByteCode verifier does not correctly check for the presence of certain malicious code when a Java applet is being loaded. The attack vector for this new security issue would likely involve an attacker creating a malicious Java applet and inserting it into a web page that when opened, would exploit the vulnerability. An attacker could then host this malicious web page on a web site, or could send it to a user in e-mail.

Title: Flaw in Windows Script Engine Could Allow Code Execution (814078) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| The Windows Script Engine provides Windows operating systems with the ability to execute script code. Script code can be used to add functionality to web pages, or to automate tasks within the operating system or within a program. Script code can be written in several different scripting languages, such as Visual Basic Script, or JScript.
A flaw exists in the way by which the Windows Script Engine for JScript processes information. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a web page that, when visited by the user, would execute code of the attacker's choice with the user's privileges. The web page could be hosted on a web site, or sent directly to the user in email.
Although Microsoft has supplied a patch for this vulnerability and recommends all affected customers install the patch immediately, additional preventive measures have been provided that customers can use to help block the exploitation of this vulnerability while they are assessing the impact and compatibility of the patch. These temporary workarounds are discussed in the "Workarounds" section in the FAQ below.

Title: Unchecked Buffer In Windows Component Could Cause Server Compromise (815021) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Microsoft originally released this security bulletin on March 17, 2003. At that time, Microsoft was aware of a publicly available exploit that was being used to attack Windows 2000 Servers running IIS 5.0. The attack vector in this case was WebDAV although the underlying vulnerability was in a core operating system component, ntdll.dll. Microsoft issued a patch to protect Windows 2000 customers shortly afterwards, but also continued to investigate the underlying vulnerability. During the course of that investigation, Microsoft found that Windows NT 4.0 also contains the underlying vulnerability in ntdll.dll, however it does not support WebDAV and therefore the known exploit was not effective against Windows NT 4.0. In addition, Microsoft has recently been made aware of this vulnerability as well in Windows XP. However, like Windows NT 4.0, Windows XP does not install Internet Information Services (IIS) by default. Microsoft has now released patches for Windows NT 4.0 and Windows XP.
Microsoft Windows 2000 supports the World Wide Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol. WebDAV, defined in RFC 2518, is a set of extensions to the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) that provide a standard for editing and file management between computers on the Internet. A security vulnerability is present in a Windows component used by WebDAV and results because a core operating system component, ntdll.dll, contains an unchecked buffer.
An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially formed HTTP request to a machine running Internet Information Server (IIS). The request could cause the server to fail or to execute code of the attacker's choice. The code would run in the security context of the IIS service (which, by default, runs in the LocalSystem context).
Although Microsoft has supplied a patch for this vulnerability and recommends all affected customers install the patch immediately, additional tools and preventive measures have been provided that customers can use to block the exploitation of this vulnerability while they are assessing the impact and compatibility of the patch. These temporary workarounds and tools are discussed in the "Workarounds" section in the FAQ below.

Title: No Title Available |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| The Windows Redirector is used by a Windows client to access files, whether local or remote, regardless of the underlying network protocols in use. For example, the "Add a Network Place" Wizard or the NET USE command can be used to map a network share as a local drive, and the Windows Redirector will handle the routing of information to and from the network share.
A security vulnerability exists in the implementation of the Windows Redirector on Windows XP because an unchecked buffer is used to receive parameter information. By providing malformed data to the Windows Redirector, an attacker could cause the system to fail, or if the data was crafted in a particular way, could run code of the attacker's choice.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Locator Service Could Lead to Code Execution (810833) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| The Microsoft Locator service is a name service that maps logical names to network-specific names. It ships with Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP. By default, the Locator service is enabled only on Windows 2000 domain controllers and Windows NT 4.0 domain controllers; it is not enabled on Windows NT 4.0 workstations or member servers, Windows 2000 workstations or member servers, or Windows XP.
A security vulnerability results from an unchecked buffer in the Locator service. By sending a specially malformed request to the Locator service, an attacker could cause the Locator service to fail, or to run code of the attacker's choice on the system.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Windows Shell Could Enable System Compromise (329390) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| The Windows Shell is responsible for providing the basic framework of the Windows user interface experience. It is most familiar to users as the Windows Desktop, but also provides a variety of other functions to help define the user's computing session, including organizing files and folders, and providing the means to start applications.
An unchecked buffer exists in one of the functions used by the Windows Shell to extract custom attribute information from audio files. A security vulnerability results because it is possible for a malicious user to mount a buffer overrun attack and attempt to exploit this flaw.
An attacker could seek to exploit this vulnerability by creating an .MP3 or .WMA file that contained a corrupt custom attribute and then host it on a website, on a network share, or send it via an HTML email. If a user were to hover his or her mouse pointer over the icon for the file (either on a web page or on the local disk), or open the shared folder where the file was stored, the vulnerable code would be invoked. An HTML email could cause the vulnerable code to be invoked when a user opened or previewed the email. A successful attack could have the effect of either causing the Windows Shell to fail, or causing an attacker's code to run on the user's computer in the security context of the user.

Title: Flaw in Windows WM_TIMER Message Handling Could Enable Privilege Elevation (328310) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
| Subsequent to the release of this bulletin it was determined that the patch for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 machines introduced an error that could, under certain configurations, cause NT 4.0 to fail. Microsoft has investigated this issue and has released an updated patch for Windows NT 4.0. The bulletin has been updated to include the new download links for the NT 4.0 patch. The error did not affect NT 4.0 TSE, except for the Japanese Language. Customers running the Japanese version of NT 4.0 TSE should apply the updated fix.
It was also subsequently established that a second problem affected Windows NT 4.0 TSE multi processor systems which was causing them to fail. The patch should have been installable on both single and multi processor system and the installer should have copied the correct binaries onto the system depending on whether the system was single or multi processor. However an installer error meant that the correct binaries were not being copied onto multi processor systems, causing them to fail under certain scenarios. Microsoft has updated the patch for Windows NT 4.0 TSE to correct this error. It should be noted that this patch only corrects an installer problem with multi processor Windows NT 4.0 TSE systems - there is no requirement to re-install the patch on single processor systems as the installer functions correctly on those systems.
Customers who have installed the patch on Microsoft Windows 2000 and Windows XP are unaffected by this error.
Windows messages provide a way for interactive processes to react to user events (e.g., keystrokes or mouse movements) and communicate with other interactive processes. One such message, WM_TIMER, is sent at the expiration of a timer, and can be used to cause a process to execute a timer callback function. A security vulnerability results because it's possible for one process in the interactive desktop to use a WM_TIMER message to cause another process to execute a callback function at the address of its choice, even if the second process did not set a timer. If that second process had higher privileges than the first, this would provide the first process with a way of exercising them.
By default, several of the processes running in the interactive desktop do so with LocalSystem privileges. As a result, an attacker who had the ability to log onto a system interactively could potentially run a program that would levy a WM_TIMER request upon such a process, causing it to take any action the attacker specified. This would give the attacker complete control over the system.
In addition to addressing this vulnerability, the patch also makes changes to several processes that run on the interactive desktop with high privileges. Although none of these would, in the absence of the TM_TIMER vulnerability, enable an attacker to gain privileges on the system, we have included them in the patch to make the services more robust.

Title: Flaw in SMB Signing Could Enable Group Policy to be Modified (329170) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
| Subsequent to releasing this bulletin it was determined that the fix that eliminates the vulnerability was not included in Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 1. The bulletin has been updated to reflect this fact, and the patch has been updated so that it installs on Windows XP Service Pack 1 systems. Customers who are currently running XP Service Pack 1 with SMB signing enabled should apply the patch.
Server Message Block (SMB) is a protocol natively supported by all versions of Windows. Although nominally a file-sharing protocol, it is used for other purposes as well, the most important of which is disseminating group policy information from domain controllers to newly logged on systems. Beginning with Windows 2000, it is possible to improve the integrity of SMB sessions by digitally signing all packets in a session. Windows 2000 and Windows XP can be configured to always sign, never sign, or sign only if the other party requires it.
A flaw in the implementation of SMB Signing in Windows 2000 and Windows XP could enable an attacker to silently downgrade the SMB Signing settings on an affected system. To do this, the attacker would need access to the session negotiation data as it was exchanged between a client and server, and would need to modify the data in a way that exploits the flaw. This would cause either or both systems to send unsigned data regardless of the signing policy the administrator had set. After having downgraded the signing setting, the attacker could continue to monitor the session and change data within it; the lack of signing would prevent the communicants from detecting the changes.
Although this vulnerability could be exploited to expose any SMB session to tampering, the most serious case would involve changing group policy information as it was being disseminated from a Windows 2000 domain controller to a newly logged-on network client. By doing this, the attacker could take actions such as adding users to the local Administrators group or installing and running code of his or her choice on the system.

Title: Buffer Overrun in Microsoft Data Access Components Could Lead to Code Execution (Q329414) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) is a collection of components used to provide database connectivity on Windows platforms. MDAC is a ubiquitous technology, and it is likely to be present on most Windows systems: | • | It is included by default as part of Windows XP, Windows 2000, and Windows Millennium. | | • | It is available for download as a stand-alone technology in its own right | | • | It is either included in or installed by a number of other products and technologies. For instance, MDAC is included in the Windows NT® 4.0 Option Pack, and some MDAC components are present as part of Internet Explorer even if MDAC itself is not installed. |
MDAC provides the underlying functionality for a number of database operations, such as connecting to remote databases and returning data to a client. One of the MDAC components, known as Remote Data Services (RDS), provides functionality that support three-tiered architectures - that is, architectures in which a client's requests for service from a back-end database are intermediated through a web site that applies business logic to them. A security vulnerability is present in the RDS implementation, specifically, in a function called the RDS Data Stub, whose purpose it is to parse incoming HTTP requests and generate RDS commands.
A security vulnerability resulting from an unchecked buffer in the Data Stub affects versions of MDAC prior to version 2.7 (the version that shipped with Windows XP). By sending a specially malformed HTTP request to the Data Stub, an attacker could cause data of his or her choice to overrun onto the heap. Although heap overruns are typically more difficult to exploit than the more-common stack overrun, Microsoft has confirmed that in this case it would be possible to exploit the vulnerability to run code of the attacker's choice on the user's system.
Both web servers and web clients are at risk from the vulnerability: | • | Web servers are at risk if a vulnerable version of MDAC is installed and running on the server. To exploit the vulnerability against such a web server, an attacker would need to establish a connection with the server and then send a specially malformed HTTP request to it, that would have the effect of overrunning the buffer with the attacker's chosen data. The code would run in the security context of the IIS service (which, by default, runs in the LocalSystem context) | | • | Web clients are at risk in almost every case, as the RDS Data Stub is included with all current versions of Internet Explorer and there is no option to disable it. To exploit the vulnerability against a client, an attacker would need to host a web page that, when opened, would send an HTTP reply to the user's system and overrun the buffer with the attacker's chosen data. The web page could be hosted on a web site or sent directly to users as an HTML Mail. The code would run in the security context of the user. |
Clearly, this vulnerability is very serious, and Microsoft recommends that all customers whose systems could be affected by them take appropriate action immediately. | • | Customers using Windows XP, or who have installed MDAC 2.7 on their systems are at no risk and do not need to take any action. | | • | Web server administrators who are running an affected version of MDAC should either install the patch, disable MDAC and/or RDS, or upgrade to MDAC 2.7, which is not affected by the vulnerability. | | • | Web client users who are running an affected version of MDAC should install the patch immediately on any system that is used for web browsing. It is important to stress that the latter guidance applies to any system used for web browsing, regardless of any other protective measures that have already been taken. For instance, a web server on which RDS had been disabled would still need the patch if it was occasionally used as a web client. |
Before deploying the patch, customers should familiarize themselves with the caveats discussed in the FAQ and in the Caveats section below.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in PPTP Implementation Could Enable Denial of Service Attacks (Q329834) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Windows 2000 and Windows XP natively support Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP), a Virtual Private Networking technology that is implemented as part of Remote Access Services (RAS). PPTP support is an optional component in Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98, Windows 98SE, and Windows ME.
A security vulnerability results in the Windows 2000 and Windows XP implementations because of an unchecked buffer in a section of code that processes the control data used to establish, maintain and tear down PPTP connections. By delivering specially malformed PPTP control data to an affected server, an attacker could corrupt kernel memory and cause the system to fail, disrupting any work in progress on the system.
The vulnerability could be exploited against any server that offers PPTP. If a workstation had been configured to operate as a RAS server offering PPTP services, it could likewise be attacked. Workstations acting as PPTP clients could only be attacked during active PPTP sessions. Normal operation on any attacked system could be restored by restarting the system.

Title: Cumulative Patch for Internet Information Service (Q327696) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
This patch is a cumulative patch that includes the functionality of all security patches released for IIS 4.0 since Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 6a, and all security patches released to date for IIS 5.0 and 5.1. A complete listing of the patches superseded by this patch is provided below, in the section titled "Additional information about this patch". Before applying the patch, system administrators should take note of the caveats discussed in the same section.
In addition to including previously released security patches, this patch also includes fixes for the following newly discovered security vulnerabilities affecting IIS 4.0, 5.0 and/or 5.1: | • | A privilege elevation vulnerability affecting the way ISAPIs are launched when an IIS 4.0, 5.0 or 5.1 server is configured to run them out of process. By design, the hosting process (dllhost.exe) should run only in the security context of the IWAM_computername account; however, it can actually be made to acquire LocalSystem privileges under certain circumstances, thereby enabling an ISAPI to do likewise. | | • | A denial of service vulnerability that results because of a flaw in the way IIS 5.0 and 5.1 allocate memory for WebDAV requests. If a WebDAV request were malformed in a particular way, IIS would allocate an extremely large amount of memory on the server. By sending several such requests, an attacker could cause the server to fail. | | • | A vulnerability involving the operation of the script source access permission in IIS 5.0. This permission operates in addition to the normal read/write permissions for a virtual directory, and regulates whether scripts, .ASP files and executable file types can be uploaded to a write-enabled virtual directory. A typographical error in the table that defines the file types subject to this permission has the effect of omitting .COM files from the list of files subject to the permission. As a result, a user would need only write access to upload such a file. | | • | A pair of Cross-Site Scripting (CSS) vulnerabilities affecting IIS 4.0, 5.0 and 5.1, and involving administrative web page. Each of these vulnerabilities have the same scope and effect: an attacker who was able to lure a user into clicking a link on his web site could relay a request containing script to a third-party web site running IIS, thereby causing the third-party site's response (still including the script) to be sent to the user. The script would then render using the security settings of the third-party site rather than the attacker's. |
In addition, the patch causes 5.0 and 5.1 to change how frequently the socket backlog list - which, when all connections on a server are allocated, holds the list of pending connection requests - is purged. The patch changes IIS to purge the list more frequently in order to make it more resilient to flooding attacks. The backlog monitoring feature is not present in IIS 4.0.

Title: Flaw in Windows XP Help and Support Center Could Enable File Deletion (Q328940) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
| Help and Support Center provides a centralized facility through which users can obtain assistance on a variety of topics. For instance, it provides product documentation, assistance in determining hardware compatibility, access to Windows Update, online help from Microsoft, and other assistance.
A security vulnerability is present in the Windows XP version of Help and Support Center, and results because a file intended only for use by the system is instead available for use by any web page. The purpose of the file is to enable anonymous upload of hardware information, with the user's permission, so that Microsoft can evaluate which devices users are not currently finding device drivers for. This information is then used to work with hardware vendors and device teams to improve the quality and quantity of drivers available in Windows. By design, after attempting to upload an XML file containing the hardware information, the system deletes it.
An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a web page that, when opened, would call the errant function and supply the name of an existing file or folder as the argument. The attempt to upload the file or folder would fail, but the file nevertheless would be deleted. The page could be hosted on a web site in order to attack users visiting the site, or could be sent as an HTML mail in order to attack the recipient when it was opened.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Outlook Express S/MIME Parsing Could Enable System Compromise (Q328676) |
Update Type: Unknown Type |
Severity: Critical |
| To allow for verification of the authenticity of mail messages, Microsoft Outlook Express supports digital signing of messages through S/MIME. A buffer overrun vulnerability lies in the code that generates the warning message when a particular error condition associated with digital signatures occurs.
By creating a digitally signed email and editing it to introduce specific data, then sending it to another user, an attacker could cause either of two effects to occur if the recipient opened or previewed it. In the less serious case, the attacker could cause the mail client to fail. If this happened, the recipient could resume normal operation by restarting the mail client and deleting the offending mail. In the more serious case, the attacker could cause the mail client to run code of their choice on the user's machine. Such code could take any desired action, limited only by the permissions of the recipient on the machine.
This vulnerability could only affect messages that are signed using S/MIME and sent to an Outlook Express user. Users of Microsoft Outlook products are not affected by this vulnerability.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Windows Help Facility Could Enable Code Execution (Q323255) |
Update Type: Unknown Type |
Severity: Critical |
| The HTML Help facility in Windows includes an ActiveX control that provides much of its functionality. One of the functions exposed via the control contains an unchecked buffer, which could be exploited by a web page hosted on an attacker's site or sent to a user as an HTML mail. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability would be able to run code in the security context of the user, thereby gaining the same privileges as the user on the system.
A second vulnerability exists because of flaws associated with the handling of compiled HTML Help (.chm) files that contain shortcuts. Because shortcuts allow HTML Help files to take any desired action on the system, only trusted HTML Help files should be allowed to use them. Two flaws allow this restriction to be bypassed. First, the HTML Help facility incorrectly determines the Security Zone in the case where a web page or HTML mail delivers a .chm file to the Temporary Internet Files folder and subsequently opens it. Instead of handling the .chm file in the correct zone - the one associated with the web page or HTML mail that delivered it - the HTML Help facility incorrectly handles it in the Local Computer Zone, thereby considering it trusted and allowing it to use shortcuts. This error is compounded by the fact that the HTML Help facility doesn't consider what folder the content resides in. Were it to do so, it could recover from the first flaw, as content within the Temporary Internet Folder is clearly not trusted, regardless of the Security Zone it renders in.
The attack scenario for this vulnerability would be complex, and involves using an HTML mail to deliver a .chm file that contains a shortcut, then making use of the flaws to open it and allow the shortcut to execute. The shortcut would be able to perform any action the user had privileges to perform on the system.
Before deploying the patch, customers should familiarize themselves with the caveats discussed in the FAQ and in the Caveats section below.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in File Decompression Functions Could Lead to Code Execution (Q329048) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
Zipped files (files having a .zip extension) provide a means to store information in a way that uses less space on a hard disk. This is accomplished by compressing the files that are put into in the zipped file. On Windows 98 with Plus! Pack, Windows Me and Windows XP, the Compressed Folders feature allows zipped files to be treated as folders. The Compressed Folders feature can be used to create, add files to, and extract files from zipped files.
Two vulnerabilities exist in the Compressed Folders function: | • | An unchecked buffer exists in the programs that handles the decompressing of files from a zipped file. A security vulnerability results because attempts to open a file with a specially malformed filename contained in a zipped file could possibly result in Windows Explorer failing, or in code of the attacker's choice being run. | | • | The decompression function could place a file in a directory that was not the same as, or a child of, the target directory specified by the user as where the decompressed zip files should be placed. This could allow an attacker to put a file in a known location on the users system, such as placing a program in a startup directory |

Title: Buffer Overrun in SmartHTML Interpreter Could Allow Code Execution (Q324096) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| The SmartHTML Interpreter (shtml.dll) is part of the FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) and Microsoft SharePoint Team Services, and provides support for web forms and other FrontPage-based dynamic content. The interpreter contains a flaw that could be exposed when processing a request for a particular type of web file, if the request had certain specific characteristics. This flaw affects the two versions of FrontPage Server Extensions differently. On FrontPage Server Extensions 2000, such a request would cause the interpreter to consume most or all CPU availability until the web service was restarted. An attacker could use this vulnerability to conduct a denial of service attack against an affected web server. On FrontPage Server Extensions 2002 and SharePoint Team Services 2002, the same type of request could cause a buffer overrun, potentially allowing an attacker to run code of his choice.

Title: Cryptographic Flaw in RDP Protocol can Lead to Information Disclosure (Q324380) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
| The Remote Data Protocol (RDP) provides the means by which Windows systems can provide remote terminal sessions to clients. The protocol transmits information regarding a terminal sessions' keyboard, mouse and video to the remote client, and is used by Terminal Services in Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000, and by Remote Desktop in Windows XP. Two security vulnerabilities, both of which are eliminated by this patch, have been discovered in various RDP implementations.
The first involves how session encryption is implemented in certain versions of RDP. All RDP implementations allow the data in an RDP session to be encrypted. However, in the versions in Windows 2000 and Windows XP, the checksums of the plaintext session data are sent without being encrypted themselves. An attacker who was able to eavesdrop on and record an RDP session could conduct a straightforward cryptanalytic attack against the checksums and recover the session traffic.
The second involves how the RDP implementation in Windows XP handles data packets that are malformed in a particular way. Upon receiving such packets, the Remote Desktop service would fail, and with it would fail the operating system. It would not be necessary for an attacker to authenticate to an affected system in order to deliver packets of this type to an affected system.

Title: Certificate Validation Flaw Could Enable Identity Spoofing (Q329115) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Important |
The original version of this bulletin was released on 05 September 2002.
Microsoft re-issued this security bulletin on November 11, 2003 to advise on the availability of an updated Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4) security patch. This revised security patch corrects a regression that may occur during the installation of Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pack 1 on Windows 2000 SP4. This regression removes the update that is discussed in this bulletin and that is provided as part of Windows 2000 SP4. Customers who are using Windows 2000 SP4 and then installed Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pack 1 should apply the updated Windows 2000 SP4 security patch to help protect from this vulnerability.
On 09 September 2002, we updated the bulletin to advise customers that a Microsoft-issued digital certificate, used to sign device drivers, did not meet the stricter validation standards established by the patch. As a result, customers who installed the patch could see unexpected error messages when installing new hardware, or in some cases might be unable to install new hardware altogether. On 20 November 2002, we released an updated version of the patch that not only eliminates this problem, but also eliminates a newly discovered variant of the original vulnerability.
The IETF Profile of the X.509 certificate standard defines several optional fields that can be included in a digital certificate. One of these is the Basic Constraints field, which indicates the maximum allowable length of the certificate's chain and whether the certificate is a Certificate Authority or an end-entity certificate. However, the APIs within CryptoAPI that construct and validate certificate chains (CertGetCertificateChain(), CertVerifyCertificateChainPolicy(), and WinVerifyTrust()) do not check the Basic Constraints field. The same flaw, unrelated to CryptoAPI, is also present in several Microsoft products for Macintosh.
The vulnerability identified in the original version of the bulletin could enable an attacker who had a valid end-entity certificate to issue a subordinate certificate that, although bogus, would nevertheless pass validation. Because CryptoAPI is used by a wide range of applications, this could enable a variety of identity spoofing attacks. These are discussed in detail in the FAQ, but could include: | • | Setting up a web site that poses as a different web site, and "proving" its identity by establishing an SSL session as the legitimate web site. | | • | Sending emails signed using a digital certificate that purportedly belongs to a different user. | | • | Spoofing certificate-based authentication systems to gain entry as a highly privileged user. | | • | Digitally signing malware using an Authenticode certificate that claims to have been issued to a company users might trust. |
The newly discovered vulnerability announced on 20 November 2002 is closely related to the one discussed in the original version of the bulletin and, like that vulnerability, involves a flaw in the way certificate validation is performed. However, this vulnerability could enable an attacker to gain control over a user's system. Because a fix for this vulnerability was not included in the original version of the patch, Microsoft strongly recommends that customers install the new patch, even if they installed the original version of the patch. Only Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows NT 4.0, and Windows NT 4.0, Terminal Server Edition are affected by this variant.

Title: Flaw in Certificate Enrollment Control Could Allow Deletion of Digital Certificates (Q323172) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| All versions of Windows ship with an ActiveX control known as the Certificate Enrollment Control, the purpose of which is to allow web-based certificate enrollments. The control is used to submit PKCS #10 compliant certificate requests, and upon receiving the requested certificate, stores it in the user's local certificate store.
The control contains a flaw that could enable a web page, through an extremely complex process, to invoke the control in a way that would delete certificates on a user's system. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could corrupt trusted root certificates, EFS encryption certificates, email signing certificates, and any other certificates on the system, thereby preventing the user from using these features.
An attack could be carried out through either of two scenarios. The attacker could create a web page that exploits the vulnerability, and host it on a web site in order to attack users who visited the site. The attacker also could send the page as an HTML mail in order to attack the recipient.
A new version of the control is available that corrects the vulnerability, and can be installed via the patch. A patch is available for all other Windows systems, as discussed in the Patch Availability section below. Internet Explorer 5 or later is a prerequisite to installing the patch. As discussed in the Caveats section, customers who operate web sites that use the Certificate Enrollment Control will need to make minor revisions to their web applications in order to use the new control. Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q323172 details how to do this.
In addition, the patch addresses a similar, but less serious vulnerability discovered in the SmartCard Enrollment control. This control ships with Windows 2000 and Windows XP. A new version of this control is also provided.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Network Share Provider Can Lead to Denial of Service (Q326830) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
| SMB (Server Message Block) is the protocol Microsoft uses to share files, printers, serial ports, and also to communicate between computers using named pipes and mail slots. In a networked environment, servers make file systems and resources available to clients. Clients make SMB requests for resources and servers make SMB responses in what described as a client server, request-response protocol.
By sending a specially crafted packet request, an attacker can mount a denial of service attack on the target server machine and crash the system. The attacker could use both a user account and anonymous access to accomplish this. Though not confirmed, it may be possible to execute arbitrary code.

By design, this handler routine should run in the security context of the user. However, a flaw could make it possible for an unprivileged user to cause the handler routine to run in the security context of LocalSystem, though a very complex process. An attacker who exploited this flaw could specify code of his or her choice as the handler, then establish a network connection in order to cause that code to be invoked by the NCM. The code would then run with full system privileges.

Title: 26 June 2002 Cumulative Patch for Windows Media Player (Q320920) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
On June 26, 2002, Microsoft released the original version of this bulletin, which described the patch it provided as being cumulative. We subsequently discovered that a file had been inadvertently omitted from the patch. While the omission had no effect on the effectiveness of the patch against the new vulnerabilities discussed below, it did mean that the patch was not cumulative. Specifically, the original patch did not include all of the fixes discussed in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS01-056. We have repackaged the patch to include the file and are re-releasing it to ensure that it truly is cumulative.
If you applied the patch delivered in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS01-056 and the one that was distributed with the original version of this bulletin, you're fully protected against all known vulnerabilities in Windows Media Player and don't need to take any action. Otherwise, we recommend that you apply the new version of the patch provided below.
The patch includes the functionality of all previously released patches for Windows Media Player 6.4, 7.1 and Windows Media Player for Windows XP. In addition, it eliminates the following three newly discovered vulnerabilities one of which is rated as critical severity, one of which is rated moderate severity, and the last of which is rated low severity: | • | An information disclosure vulnerability that could provide the means to enable an attacker to run code on the user's system and is rated as critical severity. | | • | A privilege elevation vulnerability that could enable an attacker who can physically logon locally to a Windows 2000 machine and run a program to obtain the same rights as the operating system. | | • | A script execution vulnerability related that could run a script of an attacker's choice as if the user had chosen to run it after playing a specially formed media file and then viewing a specially constructed web page. This particular vulnerability has specific timing requirements that makes attempts to exploit vulnerability difficult and is rated as low severity. |
It also introduces a configuration change relating to file extensions associated with Windows Media Player. Finally, it introduces a new, optional, security configuration feature for users or organizations that want to take extra precautions beyond applying IE patch MS02-023 and want to disable scripting functionality in the Windows Media Player for versions 7.x or higher.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Remote Access Service Phonebook Could Lead to Code Execution (Q318138) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| On June 12, 2002, Microsoft released the original version of this bulletin. On July 2, 2002, the bulletin was updated to reflect the availability of a revised patch. Although the original patch completely eliminated the vulnerability, it had the side effect of preventing non-administrative users from making VPN connections in some cases. The revised patch correctly handles VPN connections. The revised patch is immediately available from the Download Center and will be soon made available via WindowsUpdate.
The Remote Access Service (RAS) provides dial-up connections between computers and networks over phone lines. RAS is delivered as a native system service in Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 and Windows XP, and also is included in a separately downloadable Routing and Remote Access Server (RRAS) for Windows NT 4.0. All of these implementations include a RAS phonebook, which is used to store information about telephone numbers, security, and network settings used to dial-up remote systems.
A flaw exists in the RAS phonebook implementation: a phonebook value is not properly checked, and is susceptible to a buffer overrun. The overrun could be exploited for either of two purposes: causing a system failure, or running code on the system with LocalSystem privileges. If an attacker were able to log onto an affected server and modify a phonebook entry using specially malformed data, then made a connection using the modified phonebook entry, the specially malformed data could be run as code by the system.

Title: Authentication Flaw in Windows Debugger can Lead to Elevated Privileges (Q320206) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| The Windows debugging facility provides a means for programs to perform diagnostic and analytic functions on applications as they are running on the operating system. One of these capabilities allows for a program, usually a debugger, to connect to any running program, and to take control of it. The program can then issue commands to the controlled program, including the ability to start other programs. These commands would then execute in the same security context as the controlled program.
There is a flaw in the authentication mechanism for the debugging facility such that an unauthorized program can gain access to the debugger. A vulnerability results because an attacker can use this to cause a running program to run a program of her choice. Because many programs run as the operating system, this means that an attacker can exploit this vulnerability to run code as the operating system itself. She could take any action on the system including deleting data, adding accounts with administrative access, or reconfiguring the system.
A successful attack requires the ability to logon interactively to the system, either at the console or through a terminal session. Also, an a successful attack requires the introduction of code to exploit this vulnerability. Because best practices recommends restricting the ability to logon interactively on servers, this issue most directly affects client systems and terminal servers.

Title: Unchecked buffer in the Multiple UNC Provider Could Enable Code Execution (Q311967) |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Moderate |
| The Multiple UNC Provider (MUP) is a Windows service that assists in locating network resources that are identified via UNC (uniform naming convention). The MUP receives commands containing UNC names from applications and sends the name to each registered UNC provider, LAN Manager workstation, and any others that are installed. When a provider identifies a UNC name as its own, the MUP automatically redirects future instances of that name to that provider.
When MUP receives a file request, it allocates a buffer in which to store it. There is proper input checking in this first buffer. However, MUP stores another copy of the file request in a buffer when it sends this request to a redirector. This second copy of the buffer does not check inputs correctly, thereby creating the possibility that a resource request to it from an unprivileged process could cause a buffer overrun. The overrun could be exploited for either of two purposes: causing a system failure, or running code on the system with Local System privileges.

Title: Malformed Data Transfer Request can Cause Windows SMTP Service to Fail |
Update Type: Unknown Type |
Severity: Low |
| An SMTP service installs by default as part of Windows 2000 server products. Exchange 2000, which can only be installed on Windows 2000, uses the native Windows 2000 SMTP service rather than providing its own. In addition, Windows 2000 and Windows XP workstation products provide an SMTP service that is not installed by default. All of these implementations contain a flaw that could enable denial of service attacks to be mounted against the service.
The flaw involves how the service handles a particular type of SMTP command used to transfer the data that constitutes an incoming mail. By sending a malformed version of this command, an attacker could cause the SMTP service to fail. This would have the effect of disrupting mail services on the affected system, but would not cause the operating system itself to fail.

Title: Incorrect VBScript Handling in IE can Allow Web Pages to Read Local Files |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Frames are used in Internet Explorer to provide for a fuller browsing experience. By design, scripts in the frame of one site or domain should be prohibited from accessing the content of frames in another site or domain. However, a flaw exists in how VBScript is handled in IE relating to validating cross-domain access. This flaw can allow scripts of one domain to access the contents of another domain in a frame.
A malicious user could exploit this vulnerability by using scripting to extract the contents of frames in other domains, then sending that content back to their web site. This would enable the attacker to view files on the user's local machine or capture the contents of third-party web sites the user visited after leaving the attacker's site. The latter scenario could, in the worst case, enable the attacker to learn personal information like user names, passwords, or credit card information.
In both cases, the user would either have to go to a site under the attacker's control or view an HTML email sent by the attacker. In addition, the attacker would have to know the exact name and location of any files on the user's system. Further, the attacker could only gain access to files that can be displayed in a browser window, such as text files, HTML files, or image files.

Title: XMLHTTP Control Can Allow Access to Local Files |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
| Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) includes the XMLHTTP ActiveX control, which allows web pages rendering in the browser to send or receive XML data via HTTP operations such as POST, GET, and PUT. The control provides security measures designed to restrict web pages so they can only use the control to request data from remote data sources.
A flaw exists in how the XMLHTTP control applies IE security zone settings to a redirected data stream returned in response to a request for data from a web site. A vulnerability results because an attacker could seek to exploit this flaw and specify a data source that is on the user's local system. The attacker could then use this to return information from the local system to the attacker's web site.
An attacker would have to entice the user to a site under his control to exploit this vulnerability. It cannot be exploited by HTML email. In addition, the attacker would have to know the full path and file name of any file he would attempt to read. Finally, this vulnerability does not give an attacker any ability to add, change or delete data.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet standard protocol for managing disparate network devices such as firewalls, computers, and routers. All versions of Windows except Windows ME provide an SNMP implementation, which is neither installed nor running by default in any version.
A buffer overrun is present in all implementations. By sending a specially malformed management request to a system running an affected version of the SNMP service, an attacker could cause a denial of service. In addition, it is possible that he could cause code to run on the system in LocalSystem context. This could potentially give the attacker the ability to take any desired action on the system.

Title: Unchecked Buffer in Universal Plug and Play can Lead to System Compromise |
Update Type: Security Update |
Severity: Critical |
Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) allows computers to discover and use network-based devices. Windows ME and XP include native UPnP support; Windows 98 and 98SE do not include native UPnP support, but it can be installed via the Internet Connection Sharing client that ships with Windows XP. This bulletin discusses two vulnerabilities affecting these UPnP implementations. Although the vulnerabilities are unrelated, both involve how UPnP-capable computers handle the discovery of new devices on the network.
The first vulnerability is a buffer overrun vulnerability. There is an unchecked buffer in one of the components that handle NOTIFY directives - messages that advertise the availability of UPnP-capable devices on the network. By sending a specially malformed NOTIFY directive, it would be possible for an attacker to cause code to run in the context of the UPnP subsystem, which runs with System privileges on Windows XP. (On Windows 98 and Windows ME, all code executes as part of the operating system). This would enable the attacker to gain complete control over the system.
The second vulnerability results because the UPnP implementations don't sufficiently limit the steps to which they will go to obtain information on using a newly discovered device. Within the NOTIFY directive that a new UPnP device sends is information telling interested computers where to obtain its device description, which lists the services the device offers and instructions for using them. By design, the device description may reside on a third-party server rather than on the device itself. However, the UPnP implementations don't adequately regulate how it performs this operation, and this gives rise to two different denial of service scenarios: | • | An attacker could send a NOTIFY directive to a UPnP-capable computer, specifying that the device description should be downloaded from a particular port on a particular server. If the server was configured to simply echo the download requests back to the UPnP service (e.g., by having the echo service running on the port that the computer was directed to), the computer could be made to enter an endless download cycle that could consume some or all of the system's availability. An attacker could craft and send this directive to a victim's machine directly, by using the machine's IP address. Or, he could send this same directive to a broadcast and multicast domain and attack all affected machines within earshot, consuming some or all of those systems' availability. | | • | An attacker could specify a third-party server as the host for the device description in the NOTIFY directive. If enough machines responded to the directive, it could have the effect of flooding the third-party server with bogus requests, in a distributed denial of service attack. As with the first scenario, an attacker could either send the directives to the victim directly, or to a broadcast or multicast domain. |
System administrators should be aware that the patch introduces new functionality that enables them to tailor how patched systems undertake device discovery. As discussed in Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q315056, the patch introduces the ability to configure the UPnP service to download device descriptions only from the local subnet, the subnet or private network, the private network only, or from any IP address. By default, patched systems will only check the subnet or private network for device descriptions.
Customers who cannot install the patch can protect their systems by disabling UPnP support, as discussed in the FAQ.
