Detail

Revision Note: V1.0 (March 8, 2011): Bulletin published.Summary: This security update resolves a publicly disclosed vulnerability in Microsoft Groove that could allow remote code execution if a user opens a legitimate Groove-related file that is located in the same network directory as a specially crafted library file. 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.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
67484 Microsoft Office Groove Path Subversion Arbitrary DLL Injection Code Execution

Microsoft Groove is prone to a flaw in the way it loads dynamic-link libraries (e.g. GroovePerfmon.dll and mso.dll). The program uses a fixed path to look for specific files or libraries. This path includes directories that may not be trusted or under user control. By placing a custom version of the file or library in the path, the program will load it before the legitimate version. This allows an attacker to inject custom code that will be run with the privilege of the program or user executing the program. This can be done by tricking a user into opening a VCG or GTA file from the local file system or a USB drive in some cases. This attack can be leveraged remotely in some cases by placing the malicious file or library on a network share or extracted archive downloaded from a remote source.
