CVSS v3.1 |
| The GUI functionality for an interactive session in Symantec LiveUpdate 1.70.x through 1.90.x, as used in Norton Internet Security 2001 through 2004, SystemWorks 2001 through 2004, and AntiVirus and Norton AntiVirus Pro 2001 through 2004, AntiVirus for Handhelds v3.0, allows local users to gain SYSTEM privileges. |
| Symantec Ghost 7.0 stores usernames and passwords in plaintext in the NGServer\params registry key, which could allow an attacker to gain privileges. |
| Buffer overflow in Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2002 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an e-mail attachment with a compressed ZIP file that contains a file with a long filename. |
| FTP proxy in Symantec Raptor Firewall 6.5.3 and Enterprise 7.0 rewrites an FTP server's "FTP PORT" responses in a way that allows remote attackers to redirect FTP data connections to arbitrary ports, a variant of the "FTP bounce" vulnerability. |
| Symantec Ghost 6.5 and earlier allows a remote attacker to create a denial of service by sending large (> 45Kb) amounts of data to the Ghost Configuration Server on port 1347, which triggers an error that is not properly handled. |
| Symantec FireWall/VPN Appliance model 200 records a cleartext password for the password administration page, which may be cached on the administrator's local system or in a proxy, which allows attackers to steal the password and gain privileges. |
| The DeviceIoControl function in the Norton Device Driver (NAVAP.sys) in Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2002 allows local users to gain privileges by overwriting memory locations via certain control codes (aka "Device Driver Attack"). |
| WSS Agent, prior to 9.8.5, may be susceptible to a Elevation of Privilege vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user. |
| Symantec Endpoint Protection, prior to 14.3 RU10 Patch 1, RU9 Patch 2, and RU8 Patch 3, may be susceptible to a Elevation of Privilege vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user. |
| Symantec Endpoint Protection, prior to 14.3 RU10 Patch 1, RU9 Patch 2, and RU8 Patch 3, may be susceptible to a COM Hijacking vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker attempts to establish persistence and evade detection by hijacking COM references in the Windows Registry. |
| Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response (SEDR) Appliance, prior to 4.7.0, may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user. |
| An authenticated user can embed malicious content with XSS into the admin group policy page. |
| An authenticated user who has the privilege to add/edit annotations on the Content tab, can craft a malicious annotation that can be executed on the annotations page (Annotation Text Column). |
| Symantec VIP Access for Desktop prior to 2.2.4 can be susceptible to a DLL Pre-Loading vulnerability. These types of issues occur when an application looks to call a DLL for execution and an attacker provides a malicious DLL to use instead. Depending on how the application is configured, the application will generally follow a specific search path to locate the DLL. The exploitation of the vulnerability manifests as a simple file write (or potentially an over-write) which results in a foreign executable running under the context of the application. |
| Prior to 10.6.4, Symantec Messaging Gateway may be susceptible to a path traversal attack (also known as directory traversal). These types of attacks aim to access files and directories that are stored outside the web root folder. By manipulating variables, it may be possible to access arbitrary files and directories stored on the file system including application source code or configuration and critical system files. |
| Prior to ITMS 8.1 RU4, the Symantec Management Console can be susceptible to a directory traversal exploit, which is a type of attack that can occur when there is insufficient security validation / sanitization of user-supplied input file names, such that characters representing "traverse to parent directory" are passed through to the file APIs. |
| Prior to 4.4.1.10, the Norton Family Android App can be susceptible to a Denial of Service (DoS) exploit. A DoS attack is a type of attack whereby the perpetrator attempts to make a particular device unavailable to its intended user by temporarily or indefinitely disrupting services of a specific host within a network. |
| The Symantec Messaging Gateway before 10.6.3-267 can encounter an issue of cross site request forgery (also known as one-click attack and is abbreviated as CSRF or XSRF), which is a type of malicious exploit of a website where unauthorized commands are transmitted from a user that the web application trusts. A CSRF attack attempts to exploit the trust that a specific website has in a user's browser. |
| The Symantec Messaging Gateway can encounter a file inclusion vulnerability, which is a type of vulnerability that is most commonly found to affect web applications that rely on a scripting run time. This issue is caused when an application builds a path to executable code using an attacker-controlled variable in a way that allows the attacker to control which file is executed at run time. This file inclusion vulnerability subverts how an application loads code for execution. Successful exploitation of a file inclusion vulnerability will result in remote code execution on the web server that runs the affected web application. |
| The Symantec Messaging Gateway can encounter an issue of remote code execution, which describes a situation whereby an individual may obtain the ability to execute commands remotely on a target machine or in a target process. |
