Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in various Kaspersky products, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to gain escalated privileges and by malicious people to gain knowledge of sensitive information, cause a DoS (Denial of Service), and potentially compromise a user's system.

1) Unsafe methods (e.g. the "StartUploading()" method) in the AxKLSysInfo.dll and AxKLProd60.dll ActiveX controls can be exploited by malicious websites to remove and retrieve arbitrary files from a user's system.

2) An integer overflow error in klif.sys within the hook function for the "_NtSetValueKey()" function can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow and potentially execute arbitrary code with escalated privileges.

3) An unspecified error in klif.sys can be exploited by malicious, local users to execute arbitrary code with Ring-0 privileges.

4) A boundary error in the arj.ppl module of the OnDemand Scanner can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow when scanning a specially crafted ARJ archive.
