CVE-2007-0939


Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Microsoft Content Management Server, which can be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks or compromise a vulnerable system.

1) An error within the processing of certain characters in HTTP requests can be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted URL in an HTTP GET request.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

2) Unspecified input is not properly sanitised before being returned to users. This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in context of an affected site.

Solution:
Apply patches.
