MS15-080 : Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Graphics Component Could Allow Remote Code Execution (3078662)

high Nessus Plugin ID 85348

Language:

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote Windows host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist due to the Windows Adobe Type Manager Library not properly handling specially crafted OpenType fonts. An attacker can exploit these, by using a crafted document or web page with embedded OpenType fonts, to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2015-2432, CVE-2015-2458, CVE-2015-2459, CVE-2015-2460, CVE-2015-2461, CVE-2015-2462)

 - Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in various components of Windows, .NET Framework, Office, Lync, and Silverlight due to a failure to properly handle TrueType fonts. An attacker can exploit these, by using a crafted document or web page with embedded TrueType fonts, to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2015-2435, CVE-2015-2455, CVE-2015-2456 CVE-2015-2463, CVE-2015-2464)

 - A remote code execution vulnerability exists due to Microsoft Office not properly handling Office Graphics Library (OGL) fonts. An attacker can exploit this, by using a crafted document or web page with embedded OGL fonts, to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user. (CVE-2015-2431)

 - A security feature bypass vulnerability exists due to a failure by the Windows kernel to properly initialize a memory address. An attacker, using a specially crafted application, can exploit this issue to bypass Kernel Address Space Layout Randomization (KASLR) and retrieve the base address of the kernel driver. (CVE-2015-2433)

 - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists due to a flaw in the Windows Client/Server Run-time Subsystem (CSRSS) when terminating a process when a user logs off.
 An attacker can exploit this vulnerability to run code that monitors the actions of users who log on to the system, allowing the disclosure of sensitive information which could be used to elevate privileges or execute code. (CVE-2015-2453)

 - A security feature bypass vulnerability exists due to the Windows kernel-mode driver not properly validating and enforcing impersonation levels. An attacker can exploit this to gain elevated privileges on a targeted system. (CVE-2015-2454)

 - A security feature bypass vulnerability exists due to the Windows shell not properly validating and enforcing impersonation levels. An attacker can exploit this to bypass impersonation-level security and gain elevated privileges on a targeted system. (CVE-2015-2465)

Solution

Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows Vista, 2008, 7, 2008 R2, 8, RT, 2012, 8.1, RT 8.1, 2012 R2, and 10. Additionally, Microsoft has released a set of patches for Office 2007, Office 2010, Microsoft Lync 2010, 2010 Attendee, 2013 SP1, Microsoft Live Meeting 2007; and .NET Framework 3.5, 3.5.1, 4, 4.5, 4.5.1, 4.5.2, and 4.6.
