PowerPoint in Microsoft Office 2000, XP, 2003, 2004 for Mac, and v.X for Mac does not properly parse the slide notes field in a document, which allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted data in this field, which triggers an erroneous object pointer calculation that uses data from within the document. NOTE: this issue is different than other PowerPoint vulnerabilities including CVE-2006-4694.
Unspecified vulnerability in PowerPoint in Microsoft Office 2000, Office XP and Office 2003 allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted record in a PPT file, as exploited by malware such as Exploit:Win32/Controlppt.W, Exploit:Win32/Controlppt.X, and Exploit-PPT.d/Trojan.PPDropper.F. NOTE: it has been reported that the attack vector involves SlideShowWindows.View.GotoNamedShow.
Buffer overflow in LsCreateLine function (mso203) in mso.dll and mso9.dll, as used by Microsoft Word and possibly other products in Microsoft Office 2003, 2002, and 2000, allows remote user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted Word DOC or other Office file type. NOTE: this issue was originally reported to allow code execution, but on 20060710 Microsoft stated that code execution is not possible, and the original researcher agrees.
MSO.DLL in Microsoft Office 2000, Office XP (2002), and Office 2003 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service and execute arbitrary code via multiple attack vectors, as originally demonstrated using a crafted document record with a malformed string, as demonstrated by replacing a certain "01 00 00 00" byte sequence with an "FF FF FF FF" byte sequence, possibly causing an invalid array index, in (1) an Excel .xls document, which triggers an access violation in ole32.dll; (2) an Excel .xlw document, which triggers an access violation in excel.exe; (3) a Word document, which triggers an access violation in mso.dll in winword.exe; and (4) a PowerPoint document, which triggers an access violation in powerpnt.txt. NOTE: after the initial disclosure, this issue was demonstrated by triggering an integer overflow using an inconsistent size for a Unicode "Sheet Name" string.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a web page with embedded CLSIDs that reference certain COM objects that are not intended for use within Internet Explorer, as originally demonstrated using the (1) DDS Library Shape Control (Msdds.dll) COM object, and other objects including (2) Blnmgrps.dll, (3) Ciodm.dll, (4) Comsvcs.dll, (5) Danim.dll, (6) Htmlmarq.ocx, (7) Mdt2dd.dll (as demonstrated using a heap corruption attack with uninitialized memory), (8) Mdt2qd.dll, (9) Mpg4ds32.ax, (10) Msadds32.ax, (11) Msb1esen.dll, (12) Msb1fren.dll, (13) Msb1geen.dll, (14) Msdtctm.dll, (15) Mshtml.dll, (16) Msoeacct.dll, (17) Msosvfbr.dll, (18) Mswcrun.dll, (19) Netshell.dll, (20) Ole2disp.dll, (21) Outllib.dll, (22) Psisdecd.dll, (23) Qdvd.dll, (24) Repodbc.dll, (25) Shdocvw.dll, (26) Shell32.dll, (27) Soa.dll, (28) Srchui.dll, (29) Stobject.dll, (30) Vdt70.dll, (31) Vmhelper.dll, and (32) Wbemads.dll, aka a variant of the "COM Object Instantiation Memory Corruption vulnerability."
Buffer overflow in Microsoft Office XP allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a link with a URL file location containing long inputs after (1) "%00 (null byte) in .doc filenames or (2) "%0a" (carriage return) in .rtf filenames.
Argument injection vulnerability in Microsoft Outlook 2002 does not sufficiently filter parameters of mailto: URLs when using them as arguments when calling OUTLOOK.EXE, which allows remote attackers to use script code in the Local Machine zone and execute arbitrary programs.
Heap-based buffer overflow in VBE.DLL and VBE6.DLL of Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) SDK 5.0 through 6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a document with a long ID parameter.
