Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Microsoft Windows Image Color Management System (MSCMS) versions on Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, and Server 2003 SP1 and SP2 Description: A heap-based buffer overflow issue exists in the InternalOpenColorProfile function in mscms.dll, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted image file. This issue could enable remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted image file, potentially allowing an attacker to take complete control of an affected system, install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts. Recommendations: For Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, and Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.

**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Microsoft Windows versions 2000 SP4 through Server 2008 **Description** A heap-based buffer overflow in the CreateDIBPatternBrushPt function in GDI allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an EMF or WMF image file with a malformed header that triggers an integer overflow. This issue could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted EMF or WMF image file, potentially giving an attacker complete control of an affected system. **Recommendations** For Microsoft Windows versions 2000 SP4 through Server 2008, consider restricting access to EMF and WMF image files until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the CreateDIBPatternBrushPt function until a fix is provided. Restrict user privileges to minimize the risk of exploitation.

**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Microsoft Windows versions prior to the fixed version **Description** A stack-based buffer overflow issue exists in the way GDI handles filename parameters in EMF files, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a specially crafted EMF image file. This could enable an attacker to take complete control of an affected system, potentially leading to the installation of programs, viewing, changing, or deleting data, or creating new accounts. **Recommendations** For Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2, Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, Vista, and Server 2008, update to a version that includes the fix for this issue. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
