===================================================================== CERT-Renater Note d'Information No. 2009/VULN411 _____________________________________________________________________ DATE : 14/10/2009 HARDWARE PLATFORM(S) : / OPERATING SYSTEM(S) : Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Media Center Edition 2005, Tablet PC Edition 2005 running Microsoft .NET Framework. ====================================================================== KB974378 http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms09-061.mspx ______________________________________________________________________ Microsoft Security Bulletin MS09-061 - Critical Vulnerabilities in the Microsoft .NET Common Language Runtime Could Allow Remote Code Execution (974378) Version: 1.0 General Information Executive Summary This security update resolves three privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft .NET Framework and Microsoft Silverlight. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution on a client system if a user views a specially crafted Web page using a Web browser that can run XAML Browser Applications (XBAPs) or Silverlight applications, or if an attacker succeeds in persuading a user to run a specially crafted Microsoft .NET application. 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. The vulnerabilities could also allow remote code execution on a server system running IIS, if that server allows processing ASP.NET pages and an attacker succeeds in uploading a specially crafted ASP.NET page to that server and executing it, as could be the case in a Web hosting scenario. Microsoft .NET applications, Silverlight applications, XBAPs and ASP.NET pages that are not malicious are not at risk of being compromised because of this vulnerability. This security update is rated Critical for all affected editions of the Microsoft .NET Framework on Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7; Microsoft Silverlight 2 when installed on Mac; and Microsoft Silverlight 2 when installed on all releases of Microsoft Windows clients. This security update is rated Important for all affected editions of the Microsoft .NET Framework on Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2. This security update is rated Moderate for Microsoft Silverlight 2 when installed on all releases of Microsoft Windows servers. The security update addresses the vulnerabilities by modifying the way in which the Microsoft .NET verifies and enforces the rules of Microsoft .NET verifiable code and by modifying the way in which the Microsoft .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR) handles interfaces. Recommendation. The majority of customers have automatic updating enabled and will not need to take any action because this security update will be downloaded and installed automatically. Customers who have not enabled automatic updating need to check for updates and install this update manually. For information about specific configuration options in automatic updating, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 294871. For administrators and enterprise installations, or end users who want to install this security update manually, Microsoft recommends that customers apply the update immediately using update management software, or by checking for updates using the Microsoft Update service.

remote code execution vulnerability exists in the Microsoft .NET Framework that could allow a malicious Microsoft .NET application to obtain a managed pointer to stack memory that is no longer used. The malicious Microsoft .NET application could then use this pointer to modify legitimate values placed at that stack location later, leading to arbitrary unmanaged code execution. Microsoft .NET applications that are not malicious are not at risk for being compromised because of this vulnerability. ====================================================================== ========================================================= 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 + =========================================================
