Detail

Revision Note: V1.2 (April 27, 2011): Corrected the severity table and vulnerability section to add CVE-2010-4701 as a vulnerability addressed by this update. This is an informational change only.Summary: This security update resolves two publicly disclosed vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user opened a specially crafted fax cover page file (.cov) using the Windows Fax Cover Page Editor. An attacker who successfully exploited either of these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the logged-on user. 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.

Id Description
71775 Microsoft Windows Fax Cover Page Editor Memory Corruption

A memory corruption flaw exists in Microsoft Windows. The fxscover.exe application in the Fax Cover Page Editor fails to sanitize user-supplied input when parsing FAX cover pages, resulting in memory corruption. With a specially crafted .cov file, a context-dependent attacker can execute arbitrary code.
70126 Microsoft Windows Fax Cover Page Editor CDrawPoly::Serialize() Function Overflow

Microsoft Windows is prone to an overflow condition. The Windows Fax Cover Page Editor component (fxscover.exe) fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input when the 'CDrawPoly::Serialize()' function reads in data, resulting in a heap-based buffer overflow. With a specially crafted Fax Cover Page file (.cov), a context-dependent attacker can potentially execute arbitrary code.
