SOFTWARE: Microsoft Core XML Services (MSXML) 4.x - http://secunia.com/product/6472/

DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft XML Core Services, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a users system. The vulnerability is caused due to an unspecified error in the XMLHTTP 4.0 ActiveX Control. Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code when a user e.g. visits a malicious website using Internet Explorer. NOTE: The vulnerability is already being actively exploited.

SOLUTION: Microsoft has recommended various workarounds including setting the kill-bit for the affected ActiveX control (see the vendor's advisory for details).

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY: Discovered as a 0-day.

SOFTWARE:
PHP 4.0.x - http://secunia.com/product/1655/
PHP 4.1.x - http://secunia.com/product/1654/

PHP 5.0.x - http://secunia.com/product/3919/
PHP 5.1.x - http://secunia.com/product/6796/

DESCRIPTION: Some vulnerabilities have been reported in PHP, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or potentially compromise a vulnerable system. The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors within the "htmlentities()" and "htmlspecialchars()" functions. If a PHP application uses these functions to process user-supplied input, this can be exploited to cause buffer overflows by passing specially crafted data to the affected application. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

SOLUTION: Fixes are available in the CVS repository.

CRITICAL: Moderately critical

IMPACT: Spoofing

WHERE: >From remote

SOFTWARE: Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.x - http://secunia.com/product/12366/

DESCRIPTION: A vulnerability has been discovered in Internet Explorer 7, which can be exploited by malicious people to spoof the content of websites. The problem is that a website can inject content into another site's window if the target name of the window is known. This can e.g. be exploited by a malicious website to spoof the content of a pop-up window opened on a trusted website.

This is related to: SA13251. Secunia has constructed a test, which can be used to check if your browser is affected by this issue: http://secunia.com/multiple_browsers_window_injection_vulnerability_test/ . The vulnerability has been confirmed on a fully patched system with Internet Explorer 7.0 and Microsoft Windows XP SP2.

SOLUTION: Do not browse untrusted sites while browsing trusted sites.
