A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Office Outlook verifies attachments in a specially crafted e-mail message. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.

• Update Protection against Microsoft Outlook AttachMethods Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (MS10-045) Release Date:

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Access ActiveX controls due to the way that multiple ActiveX controls are loaded by Internet Explorer. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code as the logged-on user. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take complete control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.

• Update Protection against Microsoft Internet Explorer Access ActiveX Controls Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (MS10-044) Release Date:

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the FieldList ActiveX control is instantiated by Microsoft Office and Internet Explorer. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code as the logged-on user. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take complete control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.

• Update Protections against Microsoft Office Access ACCWIZ.dll Uninitialized Variable Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (MS10-044) Release Date:

An unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the Microsoft Canonical Display Driver (cdd.dll) parses information copied from user mode to kernel mode. Although it is possible that the vulnerability could allow code execution, successful code execution is unlikely due to memory randomization. In most scenarios, it is much more likely that an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause the affected system to stop responding and automatically restart. An attacker who can successfully exploit this vulnerability for code execution could execute arbitrary code and take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.

• Update Protection against Microsoft Windows Canonical Display Driver Denial of Service Vulnerability (MS10-043) Release Date:

An unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the Microsoft Help and Support Center validates specially crafted URLs. This vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted Web page using a Web browser or clicks a specially crafted link in an e-mail message. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could execute arbitrary code and take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
