    1. Security Patches by Modem? Forget it!
    By Scott Granneman

    Let's face it - there is no way for dial-up users on any major operating
    system to keep their computers up-to-date and patched. OK, maybe "no way"
    is an exaggeration. How about, "a difficult, burdensome, time-consuming,
    very prone to failure way?"

    II. MICROSOFT VULNERABILITY SUMMARY
    -----------------------------------
    1. NullSoft Winamp Long File Name Denial of Service Vulnerabili...
    BugTraq ID: 9920
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9920
    Summary:
    It has been reported that Winamp may be prone to a denial of service
    vulnerability when processing files with a name exceeding 246 characters.
    Immediate consequences of this issue may result in the application
    crashing. Although unconfirmed, due to the nature of this vulnerability
    an attack could result in a buffer overflow condition and may lead to
    arbitrary code execution. Any code execution would occur in the context
    of the user running the application.

    Winamp 5.02 was identified as the vulnerable version, however, it is
    possible that other versions are affected as well.

    Conflicting reports have surfaced regarding this issue. It is possible
    that this issue may not be valid. This BID will be updated or retired as
    more information becomes available.

    2. NullSoft Winamp Malformed File Name Denial of Service Vulner...
    BugTraq ID: 9923
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9923
    Summary:
    It has been reported that Winamp may be prone to a denial of service
    vulnerability when processing malformed file names. This issue is
    reported to present itself when a file with a malformed file name is
    processed by the application. Specifically, if the file name contains an
    excessive amount of characters and has '.mid' extension.

    Winamp 5.01 an prior were reported to be prone to this issue, however, it
    is possible that other versions are affected as well.

    3. Microsoft Windows XP Explorer.EXE Remote Denial of Service V...
    BugTraq ID: 9924
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9924
    Summary:
    Microsoft Windows Explorer for Windows XP has been reported to be prone to
    a remote denial of service vulnerability.

    This issue is due to a failure of the application to properly validate
    user-supplied input via the 'shell:' command. The 'shell:' command is a
    parameter that a user can specify when including a URI in an HTML tag.
    This command allows the HTML script to potentially execute any program
    specified after the 'shell:' command.

    Successful exploitation of this issue would cause the affected application
    to crash, denying service to legitimate users.

    4. Samba SMBPrint Sample Script Insecure Temporary File Handlin...
    BugTraq ID: 9926
    Remote: No
    Date Published: Mar 19 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9926
    Summary:
    It has been reported that the 'smbprint-new.sh' sample Samba script is
    prone to a local insecure temporary file handling symbolic link
    vulnerability. This issue is due to a design error that allows the
    application to insecurely write to a temporary file that is created with a
    predictable file name.

    An attacker may exploit this issue to corrupt arbitrary files. This
    corruption may potentially result in the elevation of privileges, or in a
    system wide denial of service.

    It should be noted that the 'smbprint-new.sh' is a sample script located
    in the 'examples' directory. This script is not intended for commercial
    use. The 'smbprint' script included in the 'packaging' directory is not
    vulnerable to this issue. Individual package distributions may vary.

    5. Apache Error Log Escape Sequence Injection Vulnerability
    BugTraq ID: 9930
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 20 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9930
    Summary:
    It has been reported that the Apache web server is prone to a remote error
    log escape sequence injection vulnerability. This issue is due to an
    input validation error that may allow escape character sequences to be
    injected into apache log files.

    This may facilitate exploitation of issues such as those found in BIDs
    6936 and 6938.

    This issue may allow an attacker to carry out a number of actions
    including arbitrary file creation and code execution on the affected
    system.

    7. Expinion.net Member Management System Multiple Cross-Site Sc...
    BugTraq ID: 9932
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 20 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9932
    Summary:
    It has been reported that a number of Member Management System scripts are
    prone to cross-site scripting vulnerabilities. These issues are reportedly
    due to a failure to sanitize user input and so allow HTML and script code
    that may facilitate cross-site scripting attacks. The issues are reported
    to affect the 'err' parameter of 'error.asp' script and the 'register.asp'
    script.

    Member Management System version 2.1 has been reported to be affected by
    this issue, however, other versions may be vulnerable as well.

    It has been reported that phpBB may be prone to multiple vulnerabilities
    that could allow an attacker to carry out SQL injection and cross-site
    scripting attacks. These vulnerabilities result from insufficient
    sanitization of user-supplied input via the 'id' parameter of
    'admin_smilies.php' module and the 'style_id' parameter of 'admin_styles'
    module.

    phpBB versions 2.0.7a and prior are reported to be prone to these issues.

    12. Invision Gallery Multiple SQL Injection Vulnerabilities
    BugTraq ID: 9944
    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 22 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9944
    Summary:
    It has been reported that Invision Gallery may be prone to multiple sql
    injection vulnerabilities, allowing an attacker to influence SQL query
    logic. The issues exist due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied
    data via the 'img', 'cat', 'sort_key', 'order_key', 'user' and 'album'
    parameters of the gallery module accessed via the 'index.php' script.

    Invision Gallery is a gallery system that can be used as a plugin for

    Remote: Yes
    Date Published: Mar 22 2004
    Relevant URL: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/9950
    Summary:
    It has been reported that FirstClass HTTP Server may be prone to a
    cross-site scripting vulnerability that may allow a remote attacker to
    execute arbitrary HTML or script code in a user's browser. The issue
    presents itself due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data via
    the 'TargetName' parameter of 'Upload.shtml' script.

    Since this vulnerability affects the web server there is a possibility of
    an attacker crossing domains if multiple domains are hosted on one web
    server. The vendor has reported that this vulnerability only affects the
    'standard' template set. The 'webmail' and 'mobile' template sets do not
    contain the 'Upload.shtml' script.

    Centrinity FirstClass versions 7.1 and prior may be vulnerable to this
    issue.

    14. ReGet Software ReGet Directory Traversal Vulnerability
    BugTraq ID: 9951

    Eraser introduces a new meaning for the verb TO ERASE. Erasing a file now
    means wiping its contents beyond recovery, scrambling its name and dates
    and finally removing it from disk. When you want to get rid of sensitive
    files or folders beyond recovery, add them to the Eraser list of doomed
    files and ask Eraser to do the job. Eraser offers tight integration with
    the Windows shell, so you can drag files and folders from Explorer and

    selecting Erase beyond recovery from the context menu.
