CORE-2009-0803: Virtual PC Hypervisor Memory Protection Vulnerability

3. *Vulnerability Description*

Windows Virtual PC and Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 are system
virtualization desktop applications from Microsoft used to run one or
many virtual hosts on a single physical system. Windows 7 relies on
Virtual PC technology to implement the backward compatibility XP Mode
for legacy Windows applications. Using XP Mode, Windows 7 users can run
Windows applications on a virtualized Windows XP SP3 operating system
directly from the Windows 7 desktop but in doing so they may be
inadvertently increasing their risk due to a bug that makes standard

VUPEN Security Research - Microsoft Windows OpenType CFF Driver Stack Overflow Vulnerability (CVE-2011-0034)

in Microsoft Windows.

The vulnerability is caused by a stack overflow error in the OpenType
Compact Font Format (CFF) driver "ATMFD.dll" when processing certain
operands within an OpenType font, which could be exploited by remote
attackers to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable Windows 7, Windows
Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Vista systems via a
malicious font, or by local attackers to gain elevated privileges on
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 systems via a malicious application.

Re: Insufficient Authentication vulnerability in Acer notebooks

Windows 7 is soon to be released.  Translation that means no one is 
investing any resources into an operating system that is just hanging 
around long enough for the RTM of Windows 7 to be installed on 
netbooks.  Every version of XP professional that I've touched in the 
last three years on HP machines did prompt you for a password.  Again, 
this is not a vulnerability of the operating system but an 
implementation issue that has been around since 2004.

Microsoft Windows NT #GP Trap Handler Allows Users to Switch Kernel Stack

  - Setting up a VDM context requires SeTcbPrivilege.
  - ring3 code cannot install arbitrary code segment selectors.
  - ring3 code cannot forge a trap frame.

This is believed to affect every release of the Windows NT kernel, from
Windows NT 3.1 (1993) up to and including Windows 7 (2009).

Working out the details of the attack is left as an exercise for the reader.

Just kidding, that was an homage to Derek Soeder :-)

Metasploit Framework 3.3 Released

We are excited to announce the immediate availability of version 3.3 of
the Metasploit Framework. This release includes 446 exploits, 216
auxiliary modules, and hundreds of payloads, including an in-memory VNC
service and the Meterpreter. In addition, the Windows payloads now
support NX, DEP, IPv6, and the Windows 7 platform. More than 180 bugs
were fixed since last year’s release of version 3.2, making this one of
the more well-tested releases yet.

blog article
"Reliable Windows 7 Exploitation: A Case Study"

Some notes about the PoC code:
 - The exploit uses a single vulnerability to both bypass ASLR and
execute the payload without requiring any non-ASLR module in memory.
 - One tiny detail required for triggering the vulnerability has been
removed, so the exploit (as given below) should not work, even on

Server, Windows 2003 Server, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and
Windows 2008 Server. (Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 2008 Server
are harder to exploit because you cannot bring up an interactive

then merge the registry back as SYSTEM to complete the method).


[SE-2012-01] Security weakness in Apple Quicktime Java extensions

Issue 15 and the new Apple Quicktime flaw (Issue 22) to achieve a
complete JVM security sandbox bypass in a Windows OS environment. The
code targets 32-bit Java Plugin only (the default for 32-bit web
browsers) and Apple Quicktime 7.7.1. It has been successfully tested
with the following combination of Java SE, OS and web browsers:
- Windows XP SP3, Windows 7 HP 64-bit, Windows 7 Pro 32-bit,
- Mozilla Firefox 11.0, Internet Explorer 9.0, Opera 11.62,
- JRE / JDK 1.6 Update 31.

Issue 22 could not be exploited in a 64-bit JRE environment. This is
due to the fact that 32-bit web browsers do not seem to work with a

machine) to plant a malicious executable with a specific name on the local 
drive and wait for this executable to get launched when another user logs 
on to the virtual machine.

While this scenario is usually blocked on default VMware Tools' 
installations on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 due to the 
default file system ACLs, a non-administrative local attacker can launch 
the attack against virtual machines where VMware Tools were installed on 
non-default locations, e.g., on a non-system drive. Additionally, the 
attack is always possible on pre- Windows XP systems such as Windows 2000.

RE: [Full-disclosure] Microsoft Help Files (.CHM): 'Locked File' Feature Bypass

Hey man - hope all is well. 

FYI- I tried your example file and by default nothing worked on Windows 7.  The "loading and embedded file" says "this file is blocked", The file spawn requires a script prompt with a "automation error" after that, the windows control panel didn't launch at all,  and the files required me to save them, etc.

The text from the uri handler did work, but I'm not sure what the ramifications of that are. Oh, the Action Panel did show up. 

I agree this isn't an "exploit" but I guess it is somewhat interesting.  Of course, downloading random .chm files is akin to downloading any remote content-rendering document, except that .chm won't automatically run from the internet in the first place, even with your rendering code in it that must be accepted by the user to load in the first place.  

As such (again, notwithstanding the mild interest around it) I'm confused by the "This was the response I expected" comment because if I read it right, it sounds as if you are being condemning for some reason.  Are you saying "this is the response I expected" because it is the correct response and you are aware of what would be required to push out supported hotfixes for low impact issues, or are you saying "this is the response I expected" because you somehow think it SHOULD be hotfixed, but is not, and that is "typical" (as in "irresponsible") or something like that?

GreenBrowser iframe content Double Free Vulnerability

GreenBrowser is a IEcore based browser. A specified crafted page could lead to the execution of shellcode. Using some JavaScript to refresh the page can let shellcode execute automatically after a press of F6.
Search bar exists in many browsers, used mostly for a quick search over different searching engine such as Google and Bing. GreenBrowser defines a shortcut button F6 used to search the content of current web page (including the content inside iframe) for text inside the search bar. After a press of F6 for a web page with a iframe points to a flash or xml, GreenBrowser will call ieframe.dll!CFindEngine::DisconnectDocument then mshtml.dll!CDocument::PrivateRelease. When the page is refreshing or closing, GreenBrowser will call mshtml.dll!CDocument::PrivateRelease to release the iframe object  again. Since CDocument object has already been released once, another call of CDocument::PrivateRelease will use a released memory (could be shellcode using HeapSpray) as virtual function table, thus leading to a code execution vulnerability. Advanced memory attacking techniques such as HeapFengShui or JIT-Spray could be used to build a stable exploit. 

A detailed analysis and a POC of this vulnerability could be downloaded from here:
http://www.hhjack.com.cn/report/GreenBrowserDF.rar (18.5 MB).
Old and lastest version of GreenBrowser has been tested under Windows 7 and Windows XP.

Windows 7 Firewire Attacks - and Defense Techniques

Hello,

In the course of the Windows 7 RTM release, the Security Research Lab would like to share some results on firewire/DMA based hacks and Windows 7, which is susceptible to such attacks.

While the attack vector itself is already known from previous Windows versions, we also describe the impact of Firewire-based Windows authentication bypassing on Microsoft's full-disk encryption solution BitLocker, the Encrypted File System (EFS) and Windows domains. A comprehensive section on countermeasures on different layers concludes this whitepaper, which can be downloaded from:

http://www.securityresearch.at/publications/windows7_firewire_physical_attacks.pdf

Moreover, we have developed a software solution to protect against Firewire-based physical security attacks on Windows systems which is discussed in a separate whitepaper:


Re: Insufficient Authentication vulnerability in Asus notebook

I don't mean to be rude but you do realize that all XP OEMs ship in this 
manner?  So rather than asking everyone to help you investigate, just 
list all OEM vendors that still ship XP builds and it might be more 
efficient for you.

Which is why in Vista and Windows 7 as you set up the OEM build it 
strongly suggests you set up a password.

With all due respect this is
