CVSS v3.1 |
| The networking software in Windows 95 and Windows 98 allows remote attackers to execute commands via a long file name string, aka the "File Access URL" vulnerability. |
| A legacy credential caching mechanism used in Windows 95 and Windows 98 systems allows attackers to read plaintext network passwords. |
| Buffer overflow in Windows Shell (used as the Windows Desktop) allows local and possibly remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a custom URL handler that has not been removed for an application that has been improperly uninstalled. |
| The HTML Help facility in Microsoft Windows 98, 98 Second Edition, Millennium Edition, NT 4.0, NT 4.0 Terminal Server Edition, Windows 2000, and Windows XP uses the Local Computer Security Zone when opening .chm files from the Temporary Internet Files folder, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via HTML mail that references or inserts a malicious .chm file containing shortcuts that can be executed, aka "Code Execution via Compiled HTML Help File." |
| Unknown vulnerability in the Certificate Enrollment ActiveX Control in Microsoft Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Millennium, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP allow remote attackers to delete digital certificates on a user's system via HTML. |
| Windows 98 and other operating systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted "oshare" packets, possibly involving invalid fragmentation offsets. |
| Buffer overflow in the HTML Help ActiveX Control (hhctrl.ocx) in Microsoft Windows 98, 98 Second Edition, Millennium Edition, NT 4.0, NT 4.0 Terminal Server Edition, Windows 2000, and Windows XP allows remote attackers to execute code via (1) a long parameter to the Alink function, or (2) script containing a long argument to the showHelp function. |
| A remote attacker can disable the virus warning mechanism in Microsoft Excel 97. |
| Microsoft JScript 5.1, 5.5, and 5.6 on Windows 2000 SP4, and 5.6 on Windows XP, Server 2003, Windows 98 and Windows Me, will "release objects early" in certain cases, which results in memory corruption and allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. |
| Buffer overflow in the ZIP capability for multiple products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via ZIP files containing entries with long filenames, including (1) Microsoft Windows 98 with Plus! Pack, (2) Windows XP, (3) Windows ME, (4) Lotus Notes R4 through R6 (pre-gold), (5) Verity KeyView, and (6) Stuffit Expander before 7.0. |
| Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) on Windows 98, 98SE, ME, and XP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via (1) a spoofed SSDP advertisement that causes the client to connect to a service on another machine that generates a large amount of traffic (e.g., chargen), or (2) via a spoofed SSDP announcement to broadcast or multicast addresses, which could cause all UPnP clients to send traffic to a single target system. |
| The Web View DLL (webvw.dll), as used in Windows Explorer on Windows 2000 systems, does not properly filter an apostrophe ("'") in the author name in a document, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary script via extra attributes when Web View constructs a mailto: link for the preview pane when the user selects the file. |
| The Compressed Folders feature in Microsoft Windows 98 with Plus! Pack, Windows Me, and Windows XP does not properly check the destination folder during the decompression of ZIP files, which allows attackers to place an executable file in a known location on a user's system, aka "Incorrect Target Path for Zipped File Decompression." |
| NETBIOS client in Windows 95 and Windows 98 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by changing a file sharing service to return an unknown driver type, which causes the client to crash. |
| Buffer overflow in Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) on Windows 98, 98SE, ME, and XP allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a NOTIFY directive with a long Location URL. |
| Windows NT Autorun executes the autorun.inf file on non-removable media, which allows local attackers to specify an alternate program to execute when other users access a drive. |
| Buffer overflow in the SHGetPathFromIDList function of the Serv-U FTP server allows attackers to cause a denial of service by performing a LIST command on a malformed .lnk file. |
| Various TCP/IP stacks and network applications allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service by flooding a target host with TCP connection attempts and completing the TCP/IP handshake without maintaining the connection state on the attacker host, aka the "NAPTHA" class of vulnerabilities. NOTE: this candidate may change significantly as the security community discusses the technical nature of NAPTHA and learns more about the affected applications. This candidate is at a higher level of abstraction than is typical for CVE. |
| The (1) CertGetCertificateChain, (2) CertVerifyCertificateChainPolicy, and (3) WinVerifyTrust APIs within the CryptoAPI for Microsoft products including Microsoft Windows 98 through XP, Office for Mac, Internet Explorer for Mac, and Outlook Express for Mac, do not properly verify the Basic Constraints of intermediate CA-signed X.509 certificates, which allows remote attackers to spoof the certificates of trusted sites via a man-in-the-middle attack for SSL sessions, as originally reported for Internet Explorer and IIS. |
| Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) in Windows 98, 98SE, ME, and XP allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption or crash) via a malformed UPnP request. |
