Microsoft Infotech Storage library Heap Corruption

Arrow  Remote Exploit : Yes
Arrow  Local Exploit : Yes
Arrow  Exploit Available : No
Arrow  Credit : Reversemode (advisories reversemode com)
Arrow  Published : 15.05.2006

Arrow  Affected Software : Microsoft Infotech Storage System Library



Arrow  Advisory Content :  

Microsoft Infotech Storage System Library (itss.dll) is prone to a heap
corruption vulnerability. This issue is due to the failure of the
library to properly check a specially crafted CHM file.
The successful exploitation of this flaw would allow to execute
arbitrary code.

Itss.dll is the system library, which deals with CHM/ITS format.

Microsoft rates the CHM file format as potentially dangerous,similar to
an executable file. Nevertheless, this flaw is triggered just
decompiling the malicious CHM file (using hh -decompile), thus malicious
attackers could trick the user to perform this operation or even,
advanced users or researchers could try to decompile before opening it.

Microsoft plans to address this issue in the next Service Pack. Due to
this fact, users of certain Windows versions should implement their own
protection mechanism.
