Info: Microsoft releases August 2010 Security Bulletin

image

Today Microsoft released August 2010 Security Bulletin, this Security Bulletin will fix 14 security bulletins, and 34 vulnerabilities. This update will fix Security Flaws and Errors in .NET Framework, Silverlight, Internet Explorer, Microsoft’s MPEG Layer-3 audio codecs, Microsoft Office and also includes Windows Kernel updates. Microsoft also released a Security Advisory with this update. This advisory addresses the potential for attacks that leverage the Windows Service Isolation feature to gain elevation of privilege. Microsoft is saying four of these updates to be high-priority deployments. The details of those four updates are:

 

  • MS10-052 This bulletin resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft’s MPEG Layer-3 audio codecs. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted media file or receives specially crafted streaming content from a Web site. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the logged-on user.
  • MS10-055 This bulletin resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Cinepak Codec, which is used by Windows Media Player to support the .avi audiovisual format. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted media file, or receives specially crafted streaming content from a Web site. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the logged-on user.
  • MS10-056 This bulletin resolves four privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office. The most severe vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user opens or previews a specially crafted RTF e-mail message. An attacker who successfully exploited any of these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the local user. Windows Vista and Windows 7 are less exploitable due to additional heap mitigation mechanisms in those operating systems.
  • MS10-060 This bulletin resolves two privately reported vulnerabilities, both of which could allow remote code execution, in Microsoft .NET Framework and Microsoft Silverlight.
