Perfect PDF products distributed with vulnerable MSVC++ libraries

Hi @ll, 

soft Xpansion <www.soft-xpansion.com> distributes their (freeware)
products "Perfect PDF 7 Master" and "Perfect PDF 7 Reader" (the
current files are dated 2011-05-10) with OUTDATED and VULNERABLE
Visual C++ 2008 runtime libraries VCRedist_x86.exe/VCRedist_x64.exe
version 9.0.30729.17 of 2008-08-08.

These libraries have been updated since then at least twice due to
vulnerabilities, see
<http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS09-035.mspx>

Vulnerable MSVC++ runtime distributed with OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 for Windows

The just released latest version of OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 for Windows
distributes (once again) a completely outdated and vulnerable MSVC++
runtime.

The unpacked installation archive contains in subdirectory \REDIST\
the installer of the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable",
VCRedist_x86.exe, time stamp 2009-01-19, version 9.0.21022.8.

This file was digitally signed by "Microsoft Corporation" on 2007-11-07,
i.e. it contains the initial release of the VC++ 2008 runtime.


Latest Intel Pro/10* ethernet adaptor drivers contain vulnerable MSVC runtime!

and
<http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=18518&ProdId=3025&lang=eng>
for example.

Unfortunately ALL these driver packages but contain an outdated and
unsupported "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Runtime", repackaged as
VC90_CRT_{x86,ia64,x64}.msi and violating Microsofts redistribution
rules, which installs VULNERABLE runtime DLLs.

RESOLUTION

The HP ProLiant Support Pack 8.30 for Windows installs versions of Microsoft Visual C++ that require security updates.

To resolve the vulnerabilities:
After installing HP ProLiant Support Pack 8.30 for Windows install the updates recommended by Microsoft in KB973923 and KB973924.

PRODUCT SPECIFIC INFORMATION

Gadu-Gadu Local/Remote Buffer Overflow vulnerability

addresses etc. may be overwritten. Modification of proper amount of stack data causes
an exception. There are several reasons for the exception being generated. It can happen 
when the filename placed in "emots.txt" is longer than the size of stack, 
or in a function under 0x0052F5D0 address, called by the emoticon parsing code:

.text:00443EEE                 call    unknown_libname_52 ; Microsoft VisualC 2-8/net runtime

to be more precise, the instruction under 0x0052F62A causes an exception, because
of the fact that EDI register value is zero in that moment:

.text:0052F62A                 rep movsd

DoS Condition with Altigen VoIP Phone Systems

until rebooted.  All information saved in the phone system at the time
is lost.

Re: CAL-20070912-1 Multiple vendor produce handling AVI file vulnerabilities

This bug has been fixed in GNU libc CVS in August 2002.  I've just
checked version 2.3.6, and it does return NULL on overflow.  There is,
however, a different version of calloc that GDB sees, but this is not
the real one invoked by application code.

On Windows, this bug depends on the Microsoft Visual C++ run-time
library.  As a result, it's not completely determined by the Windows
version alone.

By the way, the similar operator new[] issue that has been reported in
conjunction with that calloc issue:
