CVSS v3.1 |
| NOTE: this issue has been disputed by the vendor. Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2002 allows remote attackers to bypass virus protection via a Word Macro virus with a .nch or .dbx extension, which is automatically recognized and executed as a Microsoft Office document. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this issue, acknowledging that the initial scan is bypassed, but the Office plug-in would detect the virus before it is executed |
| Buffer overflow in Norton Antivirus for Exchange (NavExchange) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a .zip file that contains long file names. |
| Format string vulnerability in the Real Time Virus Scan service in Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 8.1 up to 10.0, and Client Security 1.x up to 3.0, allows local users to execute arbitrary code via an unspecified vector related to alert notification messages, a different vector than CVE-2006-3454, a "second format string vulnerability" as found by the vendor. |
| 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"). |
| 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. |
| NOTE: this issue has been disputed by the vendor. Symantec Norton AntiVirus (NAV) 2002 allows remote attackers to bypass the initial virus scan and cause NAV to prematurely stop scanning by using a non-RFC compliant MIME header. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this issue, acknowledging that the initial scan is bypassed, but the AutoProtect feature would detect the virus before it is executed |
| 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. |
| A certain ActiveX control in Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2004 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) and possibly execute arbitrary programs. |
| Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 9.0.1.x and 9.0.4.x, and possibly other versions, when obtaining updates from an internal LiveUpdate server, stores sensitive information in cleartext in the Log.Liveupdate log file, which allows attackers to obtain the username and password to the internal LiveUpdate server. |
| The \Device\SymEvent driver in Symantec Norton Personal Firewall 2006 9.1.0.33, and other versions of Norton Personal Firewall, Internet Security, AntiVirus, SystemWorks, Symantec Client Security SCS 1.x, 2.x, 3.0, and 3.1, Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition SAVCE 8.x, 9.x, 10.0, and 10.1, Symantec pcAnywhere 11.5 only, and Symantec Host, allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) via invalid data, as demonstrated by calling DeviceIoControl to send the data. |
| In some cases, Norton Antivirus for Exchange (NavExchange) enters a "fail-open" state which allows viruses to pass through the server. |
| The default configuration of Norton AntiVirus for Microsoft Exchange 2000 2.x allows remote attackers to identify the recipient's INBOX file path by sending an email with an attachment containing malicious content, which includes the path in the rejection notice. |
| NOTE: this issue has been disputed by the vendor. Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2002 allows remote attackers to send viruses that bypass the e-mail scanning via a NULL character in the MIME header before the virus. NOTE: the vendor has disputed this issue, acknowledging that the initial scan is bypassed, but the AutoProtect feature would detect the virus before it is executed |
| The POP3 proxy service (POPROXY.EXE) in Norton AntiVirus 2001 allows local users to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and crash) via a long username with multiple /localhost entries. |
| Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2004, and earlier versions, allows a virus or other malicious code to avoid detection or cause a denial of service (application crash) using a filename containing an MS-DOS device name. |
| Stack-based buffer overflow in Symantec Antivirus 10.1 and Client Security 3.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors. |
| Norton AntiVirus for Internet Email Gateways (NAVIEG) 1.0.1.7 and earlier, and Norton AntiVirus for MS Exchange (NAVMSE) 1.5 and earlier, store the administrator password in cleartext in (1) the navieg.ini file for NAVIEG, and (2) the ModifyPassword registry key in NAVMSE. |
| The default configurations for McAfee Virus Scan and Norton Anti-Virus virus checkers do not check files in the RECYCLED folder that is used by the Windows Recycle Bin utility, which allows attackers to store malicious code without detection. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the DEC2EXE module for Symantec AntiVirus Library allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a UPX compressed file containing a negative virtual offset to a crafted PE header. |
| Unknown vulnerability in the Auto-Protect module in Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2004 and 2005, as also used in Internet Security 2004/2005 and System Works 2004/2005, allows attackers to cause a denial of service (system hang or crash) by triggering a scan of a certain file type. |
