Description

This security bulletin contains information about 10 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0892)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists when Microsoft Edge improperly handles objects in memory. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and gain access to potentially sensitive information.


2) Information disclosure (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0998)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists when Microsoft Edge PDF Reader improperly handles objects in memory. A remote attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and gain access to potentially sensitive information.


3) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1023)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when Microsoft browsers access objects in memory. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


4) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-1019)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when scripting engine handles objects in memory in Microsoft Edge. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


5) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0990)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when scripting engine handles objects in memory in Microsoft Edge. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


6) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0993)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when scripting engine handles objects in memory in Microsoft Edge. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


7) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0994)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to boundary error when scripting engine handles objects in memory in Microsoft Edge. A remote unauthenticated attacker can trick the victim into visiting a specially crafted website, trigger memory corruption and execute arbitrary code with privileges of the current user.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.
