Windows 2008 May 2017 Multiple Security Updates

high Nessus Plugin ID 100063

Synopsis

The remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote Windows host is missing multiple security updates released on 2017/05/09. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the Windows improperly handles objects in memory.
(CVE-2017-0077)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists in Windows DNS Server if the server is configured to answer version queries. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause the DNS Server service to become nonresponsive. (CVE-2017-0171)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the way that the Windows Graphics Device Interface+ (GDI+) handles objects in memory, allowing an attacker to retrieve information from a targeted system.
(CVE-2017-0190)

- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the Windows COM Aggregate Marshaler due to an unspecified flaw. A local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted application, to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. (CVE-2017-0213)

- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows due to improper validation of user-supplied input when loading type libraries. A local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted application, to gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2017-0214)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Windows kernel due to improper handling of objects in memory. A local attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted application, to disclose sensitive information. (CVE-2017-0175, CVE-2017-0220)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the way some ActiveX objects are instantiated. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain access to protected memory contents. (CVE-2017-0242)

- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the way that the Windows Kernel handles objects in memory.
An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could execute code with elevated permissions. On systems with Windows 7 for x64-based Systems or later installed, this vulnerability can lead to denial of service.
(CVE-2017-0244)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the win32k component improperly provides kernel information.
An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the users system. (CVE-2017-0245)

- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows improperly handles objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run processes in an elevated context. On computers with Windows 7 for x64-based systems or later installed, this vulnerability can lead to denial of service.
(CVE-2017-0246)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the Windows kernel improperly initializes objects in memory.
(CVE-2017-0258)

- An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows when the Windows kernel-mode driver fails to properly handle objects in memory.
(CVE-2017-0263)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0267)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0268)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists in Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) when handling a specially crafted request to the server. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted SMB request, to cause the system to stop responding.
(CVE-2017-0269)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0270)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0271)

- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to execute arbitrary code on a target server.
(CVE-2017-0272)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists in Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) when handling a specially crafted request to the server. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted SMB request, to cause the system to stop responding.
(CVE-2017-0273)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0274)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0275)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to disclose sensitive information.
(CVE-2017-0276)

- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to execute arbitrary code on a target server.
(CVE-2017-0277)

- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to execute arbitrary code on a target server.
(CVE-2017-0278)

- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Microsoft Server Message Block 1.0 (SMBv1) server when handling certain requests. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially crafted packet, to execute arbitrary code on a target server.
(CVE-2017-0279)

- A denial of service vulnerability exists in Microsoft Server Message Block (SMB) when handling a specially crafted request to the server. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted SMB request, to cause the system to stop responding.
(CVE-2017-0280)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the GDI component due to improper handling of objects in memory. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by convincing a user to open a specially crafted document or visit a specially crafted website, to disclose the contents of memory. (CVE-2017-8552)
