Zero Day Initiative Advisory 12-059 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Mozilla Firefox. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists in the parsing of Ogg Vorbis media files. By crafting a stream with specific values , it is possible to cause a decoding loop that copies memory to write controlled data beyond the end of a fixed size buffer. An attacker can leverage this behavior to gain remote code execution under the context of the current process.
2556a49b5bb5a5020c3489b147fd64d8Zero Day Initiative Advisory 12-058 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of AppleQuickTime Player. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw occurs when the application allocates space for decoding a video sample encoded with the .png format. When calculating space for this surface, the application will explicitly trust the bit-depth within the MediaVideo header. During the decoding process, the application will write outside the surface's boundaries. This can be leveraged to allow for one to earn code execution under the context of the application.
14ecb036c6d1be5820e0a605434c22beZero Day Initiative Advisory 12-057 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Adobe Flash Player. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the way Flash Player handles the update of a NetStream object via the appendBytes method which can lead to a use-after-free condition when the function returns. This can result in remote code execution under the context of the current process.
6bbc1a85edeef1b30a2f0df781f12a36Zero Day Initiative Advisory 12-056 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Mozilla Firefox. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the handling of nsSVGValue observers. A certain method call can be made to loop excessively causing an out-of-bounds memory access. By abusing this behavior an attacker can ensure this memory is under control and leverage the situation to achieve remote code execution under the context of the user running the browser.
d778ea34161b185a79722cd1c4d4883bZero Day Initiative Advisory 12-055 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of WebKit. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The flaw exists within the WebCore component as used by WebKit. Specifically within the handling of element properties. When importing a node having a nonattribute property such as an attached event, an object is improperly freed and accessed. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the browser.
0eb7690d3c8776c9ca9579a5771a3739This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found in Dolibarr ERP/CRM's backup feature. This software is used to manage a company's business information such as contacts, invoices, orders, stocks, agenda, etc. When processing a database backup request, the export.php function does not check the input given to the sql_compat parameter, which allows a remote authenticated attacker to inject system commands into it, and then gain arbitrary code execution.
fa49f4753274e7498df1af82f42e4c55This Metasploit module allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by exploiting the Snort service via crafted SMB traffic. The vulnerability is due to a boundary error within the DCE/RPC preprocessor when reassembling SMB Write AndX requests, which may result a stack-based buffer overflow with a specially crafted packet sent on a network that is monitored by Snort. Vulnerable versions include Snort 2.6.1, 2.7 Beta 1 and SourceFire IDS 4.1, 4.5 and 4.6. Any host on the Snort network may be used as the remote host. The remote host does not need to be running the SMB service for the exploit to be successful.
b8d9d446349018625c77a97b4725cd67OpenCart version 1.5.2.1 suffers from arbitrary file upload, HTTP response splitting, local file inclusion, path disclosure, and failed randomness vulnerabilities.
647b793cca6ece470eaafd5c3a73746cThis whitepaper takes a closer look at a zero day attack that performs a privilege escalation to run commands in the system, which normally would be restricted because of the access level of the logged in user account. The particular vulnerability used in this case is "MS11-046: Vulnerability in Windows AFD.sys" which is a kernel level arbitrary memory overwrite, that is, the attacker can replace the content of that particular memory address with any value that he desires.
567f1b6b9081cd25538a9957f2416ec8This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability in the XSL parser of the XSL Content Portlet. When Tomcat is present, arbitrary code can be executed via java calls in the data fed to the Xalan XSLT processor. If XSLPAGE is defined, the user must have rights to change the content of that page (to add a new XSL portlet), otherwise it can be left blank and a new one will be created. The second method however, requires administrative privileges.
6a8ea2e6b7c50e4cc43ad8970fee954eThis Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability found in TRENDnet SecurView Internet Camera's ActiveX control. By supplying a long string of data as the sFilter argument of the OpenFileDlg() function, it is possible to trigger a buffer overflow condition due to WideCharToMultiByte (which converts unicode back to) overwriting the stack more than it should, which results arbitrary code execution under the context of the user.

857f28ae19e2e27a7554a8bc3f0e99fcCisco Security Advisory - The Cisco WebEx Recording Format (WRF) player contains three buffer overflow vulnerabilities. In some cases, exploitation of the vulnerabilities could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system with the privileges of a targeted user. The Cisco WebEx Players are applications that are used to play back WebEx meeting recordings that have been recorded on a WebEx meeting site or on the computer of an online meeting attendee. The players can be automatically installed when the user accesses a recording file that is hosted on a WebEx meeting site. The players can also be manually installed for offline playback after downloading the application from www.webex.com. If the WRF player was automatically installed, it will be automatically upgraded to the latest, non-vulnerable version when users access a recording file that is hosted on a WebEx meeting site. If the WRF player was manually installed, users will need to manually install a new version of the player after downloading the latest version from www.webex.com. Cisco has updated affected versions of the WebEx meeting sites and WRF player to address these vulnerabilities.
