VAR-200912-0321 CVE-2009-4444 Microsoft IIS Vulnerabilities that allow third-party extension restrictions to be bypassed CVSS V2: 6.0
CVSS V3: -
Severity: MEDIUM
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.x and 6.x uses only the portion of a filename before a ; (semicolon) character to determine the file extension, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended extension restrictions of third-party upload applications via a filename with a (1) .asp, (2) .cer, or (3) .asa first extension, followed by a semicolon and a safe extension, as demonstrated by the use of asp.dll to handle a .asp;.jpg file. Microsoft IIS is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability. This vulnerability may cause IIS to interpret unexpected files as CGI applications. Attackers may be able to exploit this vulnerability to bypass intended security restrictions. UPDATE (December 25, 2009): Reports indicate that IIS 7.5 is not vulnerable to this issue. Furthermore, it is currently unknown whether IIS 7.0 is vulnerable. UPDATE (December 29, 2009): Reports indicate that IIS 5.0 SP1 under Windows XP SP 3 and IIS 7.0 under Windows Server 2008 are not affected. NOTE: This BID is being retired. For an exploit to succeed, IIS must be configured in a nondefault way and contrary to the vendor's recommended best practices. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented?

The vulnerability is caused due to the web server incorrectly executing e.g. ASP code included in a file having multiple extensions separated by ";", only one internal extension being equal to ".asp" (e.g. "file.asp;.jpg"). This can be exploited to potentially upload and execute arbitrary ASP code via a third-party application using file extensions to restrict uploaded file types. The vulnerability is confirmed on a fully patched Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 running Microsoft IIS version 6. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Restrict file uploads to trusted users only.

The Cisco WebEx WRF Player is an application that is used to play back WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on the computer of an on-line meeting attendee. The WRF Player can be automatically installed when the user accesses a WRF file that is hosted on a WebEx server. The WRF Player can also be manually installed for offline playback after downloading the application from www.webex.com. If the WRF Player was automatically installed, the WebEx WRF Player will be automatically upgraded to the latest, non-vulnerable version when users access a WRF file hosted on a WebEx server. If the WebEx WRF Player was manually installed, users will need to manually install a new version of the player after downloading the latest version from www.webex.com. Cisco has released free software updates that address these vulnerabilities. This advisory is posted at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20091216-webex.shtml. Affected Products ================= Vulnerable Products - ------------------- The vulnerabilities disclosed in this advisory affect the Cisco WebEx WRF Player. Affected versions of the WRF Player are those prior to the "first fixed" versions, which are shown in the section "Software Versions and Fixes" of this advisory. To check if a Cisco WebEx server is running an affected version of the WebEx client build, users can log in to their Cisco WebEx server and go to the Support -> Downloads section. The version of the WebEx client build will be displayed on the right-hand side of the page under "About Support Center", for example "Client build: 27.11.0.3328". There is no way to check if a manually installed version of the WRF Player is affected by these vulnerabilities. Therefore, Cisco recommends that users upgrade to the most current version of the player that is available from http://www.webex.com/downloadplayer.html. Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable - --------------------------------- The Cisco WebEx Player for the WebEx Advanced Recording Format (ARF) file format is not affected by these vulnerabilities. No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by these vulnerabilities. Details ======= The WebEx meeting service is a hosted multimedia conferencing solution that is managed by and maintained by Cisco WebEx. The WebEx Recording Format (WRF) is a file format that is used to store WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on the computer of an on-line meeting attendee. The WRF Player is an application that is used to play back and edit WRF files (files with .wrf extensions). The WRF Player can be automatically installed when the user accesses a WRF file that is hosted on a WebEx server (stream playback mode). The WRF Player can also be manually installed after downloading the application from www.webex.com to play back WRF files locally (offline playback mode). Multiple buffer overflow vulnerabilities exist in the WRF Player. The vulnerabilities may lead to a crash of the WRF Player application, or in some cases, lead to remote code execution. To exploit a vulnerability, a malicious WRF file would need to be opened by the WRF Player application. An attacker may be able to accomplish this by providing the malicious WRF file directly to users (for example, via e-mail), or by convincing users to visit a malicious website. The vulnerability cannot be triggered by users attending a WebEx meeting. These vulnerabilities have been assigned the following Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) identifiers: * CVE-2009-2875 * CVE-2009-2876 * CVE-2009-2877 * CVE-2009-2878 * CVE-2009-2879 * CVE-2009-2880 Vulnerability Scoring Details ============================= Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS version 2.0. CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding CVSS at: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the environmental impact for individual networks at: http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss * Multiple Cisco WebEx Player Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities (all vulnerabilities in this advisory) CVSS Base Score - 9.3 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Medium Authentication - None Confidentiality Impact - Complete Integrity Impact - Complete Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 7.7 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed Impact ====== Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities described in this document could result in a crash of the Cisco WebEx WRF Player application, and in some cases, allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted system with the privileges of the user running the WRF Player application. Software Versions and Fixes =========================== The table below contains "First Fixed" information for the Cisco WebEx WRF Player that is automatically downloaded from a WebEx site when a WRF hosted on a WebEx site is accessed (stream playback mode). Fixes are cumulative within a major release so for example, if release 27.10.1 is fixed, then release 27.10.2 will have the fix too. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Platform | Major Release 26.x | Major Release 27.x | |-----------+---------------------+--------------------------| | Microsoft | 26.49.32; available | 27.10.x; available now | | Windows | now except lockdown | for non-PSO and | | | sites | non-lockdown sites | |-----------+---------------------+--------------------------| | | 26.49.35; available | 27.11.8; available now | | Mac OS X | early February 2010 | for non-PSO and | | | | non-lockdown sites | |-----------+---------------------+--------------------------| | | 26.49.35; available | 27.11.8; available now | | Linux | early February 2010 | for non-PSO and | | | | non-lockdown sites | +------------------------------------------------------------+ PSO and lockdown sites running 27.x will receive the fixes for these vulnerabilities during the next emergency patching (EP) cycle.

The Cisco WebEx WRF Player is an application that is used to play back WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on the computer of an on-line meeting attendee. The WRF Player can be automatically installed when the user accesses a WRF file that is hosted on a WebEx server. The WRF Player can also be manually installed for offline playback after downloading the application from www.webex.com. If the WRF Player was automatically installed, the WebEx WRF Player will be automatically upgraded to the latest, non-vulnerable version when users access a WRF file hosted on a WebEx server. If the WebEx WRF Player was manually installed, users will need to manually install a new version of the player after downloading the latest version from www.webex.com. Cisco has released free software updates that address these vulnerabilities. This advisory is posted at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20091216-webex.shtml. Affected Products ================= Vulnerable Products - ------------------- The vulnerabilities disclosed in this advisory affect the Cisco WebEx WRF Player. Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, and Linux versions of the player are affected. Affected versions of the WRF Player are those prior to the "first fixed" versions, which are shown in the section "Software Versions and Fixes" of this advisory. To check if a Cisco WebEx server is running an affected version of the WebEx client build, users can log in to their Cisco WebEx server and go to the Support -> Downloads section. The version of the WebEx client build will be displayed on the right-hand side of the page under "About Support Center", for example "Client build: 27.11.0.3328". There is no way to check if a manually installed version of the WRF Player is affected by these vulnerabilities. Therefore, Cisco recommends that users upgrade to the most current version of the player that is available from http://www.webex.com/downloadplayer.html. Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable - --------------------------------- The Cisco WebEx Player for the WebEx Advanced Recording Format (ARF) file format is not affected by these vulnerabilities. No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by these vulnerabilities. Details ======= The WebEx meeting service is a hosted multimedia conferencing solution that is managed by and maintained by Cisco WebEx. The WebEx Recording Format (WRF) is a file format that is used to store WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on the computer of an on-line meeting attendee. The WRF Player is an application that is used to play back and edit WRF files (files with .wrf extensions). The WRF Player can be automatically installed when the user accesses a WRF file that is hosted on a WebEx server (stream playback mode). The WRF Player can also be manually installed after downloading the application from www.webex.com to play back WRF files locally (offline playback mode). The vulnerabilities may lead to a crash of the WRF Player application, or in some cases, lead to remote code execution. To exploit a vulnerability, a malicious WRF file would need to be opened by the WRF Player application. An attacker may be able to accomplish this by providing the malicious WRF file directly to users (for example, via e-mail), or by convincing users to visit a malicious website. The vulnerability cannot be triggered by users attending a WebEx meeting. These vulnerabilities have been assigned the following Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) identifiers: * CVE-2009-2875 * CVE-2009-2876 * CVE-2009-2877 * CVE-2009-2878 * CVE-2009-2879 * CVE-2009-2880 Vulnerability Scoring Details ============================= Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS version 2.0. CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding CVSS at: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the environmental impact for individual networks at: http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss * Multiple Cisco WebEx Player Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities (all vulnerabilities in this advisory) CVSS Base Score - 9.3 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Medium Authentication - None Confidentiality Impact - Complete Integrity Impact - Complete Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 7.7 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed Impact ====== Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities described in this document could result in a crash of the Cisco WebEx WRF Player application, and in some cases, allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted system with the privileges of the user running the WRF Player application.

VAR-200912-0439 CVE-2009-2880 Cisco WebEx WRF Player of atrpui.dll Vulnerable to buffer overflow CVSS V2: 9.3
CVSS V3: -
Severity: HIGH
Buffer overflow in atrpui.dll in the Cisco WebEx WRF Player 26.x before 26.49.32 for Windows, 27.x before 27.10.x for Windows, 26.x before 26.49.35 for Mac OS X and Linux, and 27.x before 27.11.8 for Mac OS X and Linux allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted WebEx Recording Format (WRF) file. Cisco WebEx WRF Player of atrpui.dll Contains a buffer overflow vulnerability. Cisco WebEx is prone to multiple remote buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because the software fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. Successful exploits will completely compromise affected computers. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented?

The Cisco WebEx WRF Player is an application that is used to play back WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on the computer of an on-line meeting attendee. The WRF Player can be automatically installed when the user accesses a WRF file that is hosted on a WebEx server. The WRF Player can also be manually installed for offline playback after downloading the application from www.webex.com. If the WRF Player was automatically installed, the WebEx WRF Player will be automatically upgraded to the latest, non-vulnerable version when users access a WRF file hosted on a WebEx server. If the WebEx WRF Player was manually installed, users will need to manually install a new version of the player after downloading the latest version from www.webex.com. Cisco has released free software updates that address these vulnerabilities. This advisory is posted at http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/cisco-sa-20091216-webex.shtml. Affected Products ================= Vulnerable Products - ------------------- The vulnerabilities disclosed in this advisory affect the Cisco WebEx WRF Player. Affected versions of the WRF Player are those prior to the "first fixed" versions, which are shown in the section "Software Versions and Fixes" of this advisory. To check if a Cisco WebEx server is running an affected version of the WebEx client build, users can log in to their Cisco WebEx server and go to the Support -> Downloads section. The version of the WebEx client build will be displayed on the right-hand side of the page under "About Support Center", for example "Client build: 27.11.0.3328". There is no way to check if a manually installed version of the WRF Player is affected by these vulnerabilities. Therefore, Cisco recommends that users upgrade to the most current version of the player that is available from http://www.webex.com/downloadplayer.html. Products Confirmed Not Vulnerable - --------------------------------- The Cisco WebEx Player for the WebEx Advanced Recording Format (ARF) file format is not affected by these vulnerabilities. No other Cisco products are currently known to be affected by these vulnerabilities. Details ======= The WebEx meeting service is a hosted multimedia conferencing solution that is managed by and maintained by Cisco WebEx. The WebEx Recording Format (WRF) is a file format that is used to store WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on the computer of an on-line meeting attendee. The WRF Player is an application that is used to play back and edit WRF files (files with .wrf extensions). The WRF Player can be automatically installed when the user accesses a WRF file that is hosted on a WebEx server (stream playback mode). The WRF Player can also be manually installed after downloading the application from www.webex.com to play back WRF files locally (offline playback mode). The vulnerabilities may lead to a crash of the WRF Player application, or in some cases, lead to remote code execution. To exploit a vulnerability, a malicious WRF file would need to be opened by the WRF Player application. An attacker may be able to accomplish this by providing the malicious WRF file directly to users (for example, via e-mail), or by convincing users to visit a malicious website. The vulnerability cannot be triggered by users attending a WebEx meeting. These vulnerabilities have been assigned the following Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) identifiers: * CVE-2009-2875 * CVE-2009-2876 * CVE-2009-2877 * CVE-2009-2878 * CVE-2009-2879 * CVE-2009-2880 Vulnerability Scoring Details ============================= Cisco has provided scores for the vulnerabilities in this advisory based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS). The CVSS scoring in this Security Advisory is done in accordance with CVSS version 2.0. CVSS is a standards-based scoring method that conveys vulnerability severity and helps determine urgency and priority of response. Cisco has provided a base and temporal score. Customers can then compute environmental scores to assist in determining the impact of the vulnerability in individual networks. Cisco has provided an FAQ to answer additional questions regarding CVSS at: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/security/intelligence/cvss-qandas.html Cisco has also provided a CVSS calculator to help compute the environmental impact for individual networks at: http://intellishield.cisco.com/security/alertmanager/cvss * Multiple Cisco WebEx Player Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities (all vulnerabilities in this advisory) CVSS Base Score - 9.3 Access Vector - Network Access Complexity - Medium Authentication - None Confidentiality Impact - Complete Integrity Impact - Complete Availability Impact - Complete CVSS Temporal Score - 7.7 Exploitability - Functional Remediation Level - Official-Fix Report Confidence - Confirmed Impact ====== Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities described in this document could result in a crash of the Cisco WebEx WRF Player application, and in some cases, allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the targeted system with the privileges of the user running the WRF Player application.

VAR-200912-0430 CVE-2009-1797 APC Network Management Card web interface vulnerable to cross-site scripting and cross-site request forgery CVSS V2: 6.8
CVSS V3: -
Severity: MEDIUM
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities on the Network Management Card (NMC) on American Power Conversion (APC) Switched Rack PDU (aka Rack Mount Power Distribution) devices and other devices allow remote attackers to hijack the authentication of (1) administrator or (2) device users for requests that create new administrative users or have unspecified other impact. The web management interface for the APC Network Monitoring Card (NMC) used in various APC devices contains cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (CSRF/XSRF) vulnerabilities. By convincing a victim to load a specially crafted URL while authenticated to an NMC, an attacker could obtain credentials or perform certain actions as the victim, including turning off the NMC-based device and any systems attached to it. An attacker can exploit the cross-site request forgery issues to alter the settings on affected devices, which may lead to further network-based attacks. The attacker can exploit the cross-site scripting issues to execute arbitrary script code in the context of the affected browser, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials. Other attacks are also possible. Versions prior to the following are vulnerable: Network Management Card Firmware 3.7.2 Network Management Card Firmware 5.1.1. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Do you have VARM strategy implemented? (Vulnerability Assessment Remediation Management) If not, then implement it through the most reliable vulnerability intelligence source on the market. Implement it through Secunia. 1) Input passed to various parameters (e.g. the "login_username" parameter in Forms/login1) is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user. 2) The application allows users to perform certain actions via HTTP requests without performing any validity checks to verify the request. This can be exploited to e.g. create administrative users by tricking a logged-in administrative user into visiting a malicious web site. Vulnerability #1 is reported in APC AP7932 Switched Rack PDU version 3.3.4 with application module version 3.7.0. Other APC NMC products and versions may also be affected.

I. Description Adobe Security Advisory APSB10-02 describes a number of vulnerabilities affecting Adobe Reader and Acrobat. These vulnerabilities affect Reader 9.2 and earlier 9.x versions and 8.1.7 and earlier 8.x versions. Further details are available in the US-CERT Vulnerability Notes Database. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to open a specially crafted PDF file. The Adobe Reader browser plug-in is available for multiple web browsers and operating systems, which can automatically open PDF documents hosted on a website. Some of these vulnerabilities are being actively exploited. II. III. Solution Update Adobe has released updates to address this issue. Users are encouraged to read Adobe Security Bulletin APSB10-02 and update vulnerable versions of Adobe Reader and Acrobat. Acrobat JavaScript can be disabled using the Preferences menu (Edit -> Preferences -> JavaScript; un-check Enable Acrobat JavaScript). Prevent Internet Explorer from automatically opening PDF documents The installer for Adobe Reader and Acrobat configures Internet Explorer to automatically open PDF files without any user interaction. This behavior can be reverted to a safer option that prompts the user by importing the following as a .REG file: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AcroExch.Document.7] "EditFlags"=hex:00,00,00,00 Disable the display of PDF documents in the web browser Preventing PDF documents from opening inside a web browser will partially mitigate this vulnerability. If this workaround is applied it may also mitigate future vulnerabilities. To prevent PDF documents from automatically being opened in a web browser, do the following: 1. Open Adobe Acrobat Reader. 2. Open the Edit menu. 3. Choose the preferences option. 4. Choose the Internet section. 5. Un-check the "Display PDF in browser" check box.
