===================================================================== CERT-Renater Note d'Information No. 2009/VULN160 _____________________________________________________________________ DATE : 15/04/2009 HARDWARE PLATFORM(S) : / OPERATING SYSTEM(S) : Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 running Windows HTTP Services. ====================================================================== KB960803 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS09-013.mspx ______________________________________________________________________ Microsoft Security Bulletin MS09-013 - Critical Vulnerabilities in Windows HTTP Services Could Allow Remote Code Execution (960803) Published: April 14, 2009 Version: 1.0 General Information Executive Summary This security update resolves one publicly disclosed vulnerability and two privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows HTTP Services (WinHTTP). The most severe vulnerability could allow remote code execution. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. This security update is rated Critical for all supported editions of Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008. For more information, see the subsection, Affected and Non-Affected Software, in this section. The security update addresses the vulnerabilities by changing the way that Windows HTTP Services handles errors and validates certificates, and by ensuring that Windows HTTP Services correctly use NTLM credential reflection protection mechanisms. For more information about the vulnerabilities, see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) subsection for the specific vulnerability entry under the next section, Vulnerability Information. Affected Software Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Windows XP Service Pack 3 Windows XP Professional x64 Edition and Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition and Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition Service Pack 2 Windows Server 2003 with SP1 for Itanium-based Systems and Windows Server 2003 with SP2 for Itanium-based Systems Windows Vista and Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Windows Vista x64 Edition and Windows Vista x64 Edition Service Pack 1 Windows Server 2008 for 32-bit Systems* Windows Server 2008 for x64-based Systems* Windows Server 2008 for Itanium-based Systems *Windows Server 2008 server core installation affected. Vulnerability Information Windows HTTP Services Integer Underflow Vulnerability - CVE-2009-0086 A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Windows HTTP Services handle specific values that are returned by a remote Web server. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with the same user rights as the service or application which calls the WinHTTP API to connect to the attacker's Web server. Windows HTTP Services Certificate Name Mismatch Vulnerability - CVE-2009-0089 A spoofing vulnerability exists in Windows HTTP Services as a result of the incomplete validation of the distinguished name in a digital certificate. When combined with specific other attacks, such as DNS spoofing, this may allow an attacker to successfully spoof the digital certificate of a Web site for any application that uses Windows HTTP Services. Windows HTTP Services Credential Reflection Vulnerability - CVE-2009-0550 A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Windows HTTP Services handles NTLM credentials when a user connects to an attacker's Web server. This vulnerability allows an attacker to replay the user's credentials back to the attacker and execute code in the context of the logged-on user. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. ====================================================================== ========================================================= Les serveurs de référence du CERT-Renater http://www.urec.fr/securite http://www.cru.fr/securite http://www.renater.fr ========================================================= + CERT-RENATER | tel : 01-53-94-20-44 + + 151 bd de l'Hopital | fax : 01-53-94-20-41 + + 75013 Paris | email: certsvp@renater.fr + =========================================================
