Synopsis

The Microsoft Visual Studio Products are affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The Microsoft Visual Studio Products are missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- A remote code execution vulnerability in the MSDIA SDK where corrupted PDBs can cause heap overflow, leading to a crash or remote code execution. (CVE-2023-24897)

- A remote code execution vulnerability where specially crafted input to git apply -reject can lead to controlled content writes at arbitrary locations. (CVE-2023-25652)

- A spoofing vulnerability where Github localization messages refer to a hard-coded path instead of respecting the runtime prefix that leads to out-of-bound memory writes and crashes. (CVE-2023-25815)

- An Out-Of-Bounds Write Vulnerability in Autodesk FBX SDK version 2020 or prior may lead to code execution through maliciously crafted FBX files or information disclosure. (CVE-2023-27909)

- An information disclosure vulnerability where a user may be tricked into opening a malicious FBX file. This may exploit a stack buffer overflow (CVE-2023-27910) or heap buffer overflow (CVE-2023-27911) vulnerability in Autodesk FBX SDK 2020 or prior which may lead to remote code execution.

- A remote code execution vulnerability where a configuration file containing a logic error results in arbitrary configuration injection. (CVE-2023-29007)

- A remote code execution vulnerability where the Git for Windows executable responsible for implementing a SOCKS5 proxy is susceptible to picking up an untrusted configuration on multi-user machines. (CVE-2023-29011)

- A remote code execution vulnerability where the Git for Windows Git CMD program incorrectly searches for a program upon startup, leading to silent arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2023-29012)

- A remote code execution vulnerability in the .NET SDK during tool restore which can lead to an elevation of privilege. (CVE-2023-33135)

- An information disclosure vulnerability by the obj file parser in Visual Studio. (CVE-2023-33139)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
