NOD32 Antivirus DOC parsing Arbitrary Code Execution Advisory
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
Founded in "1992, ESET is a global provider of security software for
enterprises and consumers. ESET's award-winning, antivirus software
system, NOD32, provides real-time protection from known and unknown
viruses, spyware, rootkits and other malware". Multiple vulnerabilities
have been found in the file parsing engine of NOD32 antivirus.
DETAILS
Vulnerable Systems:
* NOD32 Antivirus version 1.1742 and prior
Immune Systems:
* NOD32 Antivirus version 1.1743
In detail, the following flaw was determined:
- Divide by Zero in .CHM file parsing.
- Heap Overflow through Integer Overflow in .DOC File Parsing
The .DOC problem can lead to remote arbitrary code execution if an
attacker carefully crafts a file that exploits the aforementioned
vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities are present in NOD32 Antivirus
software versions prior to the update v.1.1743.
Solution:
The vulnerabilities were reported on Aug 24 and an update has been issued
on September 08 to solve these vulnerabilities through the regular update
mechanism.
