Vulnerability Details

Exchange Calendar Vulnerability - CVE-2006-0027:

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft
Exchange Server that could allow an attacker who successfully
exploited this vulnerability to take complete control of the
affected system.

An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a
specially crafted message that could potentially allow remote
code execution when an Exchange Server processes an email with
certain vCal or iCal properties.

This is a remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker who
successfully exploited this vulnerability could remotely 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.

Vulnerability Details

Flash Player Vulnerabilities - CVE-2006-0024, CVE-2005-2628:

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Macromedia
Flash Player from Adobe because of the way that it handles
Flash Animation (SWF) files. An attacker could exploit the
vulnerability by constructing a specially crafted Flash Animation
(SWF) file that could potentially allow remote code execution
if a user visited a Web site containing the specially crafted
SWF file or viewed an e-mail message containing the specially
crafted SWF file as an attachment. An attacker who successfully
exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of
an affected system.

Vulnerability Details

MSDTC Invalid Memory Access Vulnerability - CVE-2006-0034:

A denial of service vulnerability exists that could allow an
attacker to send a specially crafted network message to an
affected system. An attacker could cause the Microsoft Distributed
Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) to stop responding. Note that
the denial of service vulnerability would not allow an attacker
to execute code or to elevate their user rights, but it could
cause the affected system to stop accepting requests.
