CVSS v3.1 |
| The on-access scanner for McAfee Virex 7.7 for Macintosh, in some circumstances, might not activate when malicious content is accessed from the web browser, and might not prevent the content from being saved, which allows remote attackers to bypass virus protection, as demonstrated using the EICAR test file. |
| Computer Associates (CA) InoculateIT 6.0, eTrust Antivirus r6.0 through r7.1, eTrust Antivirus for the Gateway r7.0 and r7.1, eTrust Secure Content Manager, eTrust Intrusion Detection, EZ-Armor 2.0 through 2.4, and EZ-Antivirus 6.1 through 6.3 allow remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. |
| Format string vulnerability in the SMTP server for McAfee WebShield 4.5 MR2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format strings in the domain name portion of a destination address, which are not properly handled when a bounce message is constructed. |
| The default configurations for McAfee Virus Scan and Norton Anti-Virus virus checkers do not check files in the RECYCLED folder that is used by the Windows Recycle Bin utility, which allows attackers to store malicious code without detection. |
| McAfee Anti-Virus Engine DATS drivers before 4398 released on Oct 13th 2004 and DATS Driver before 4397 October 6th 2004 allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. |
| The ActiveX control in MCINSCTL.DLL for McAfee VirusScan Security Center does not use the IObjectSafetySiteLock API to restrict access to required domains, which allows remote attackers to create or append to arbitrary files via the StartLog and AddLog methods in the MCINSTALL.McLog object. |
| McAfee VirusScan 4.5.1, when the WebScanX.exe module is enabled, searches for particular DLLs from the user's home directory, even when browsing the local hard drive, which allows local users to run arbitrary code via malicious versions of those DLLs. |
| Multiple interpretation error in (1) McAfee Internet Security Suite 7.1.5 version 9.1.08 with the 4.4.00 engine and (2) McAfee Corporate 8.0.0 patch 10 with the 4400 engine allows remote attackers to bypass virus scanning via a file such as BAT, HTML, and EML with an "MZ" magic byte sequence which is normally associated with EXE, which causes the file to be treated as a safe type that could still be executed as a dangerous file type by applications on the end system, as demonstrated by a "triple headed" program that contains EXE, EML, and HTML content, aka the "magic byte bug." |
| Multiple interpretation error in unspecified versions of McAfee Antivirus allows remote attackers to bypass virus detection via a malicious executable in a specially crafted RAR file with malformed central and local headers, which can still be opened by products such as Winrar and PowerZip, even though they are rejected as corrupted by Winzip and BitZipper. |
| McAfee VirusScan 4.5.1 does not drop SYSTEM privileges before allowing users to browse for files via the "System Scan" properties of the System Tray applet, which could allow local users to gain privileges. |
| McAfee IntruShield Security Management System obtains the user ID from the URL, which allows remote attackers to guess the Manager account and possibly gain privileges via a brute force attack. |
| McAfee IntruShield Security Management System allows remote authenticated users to access the "Generate Reports" feature and modify alerts by setting the Access option to true, as demonstrated using the (1) fullAccess or (2) fullAccessRight parameter in reports-column-center.jsp, or (3) fullAccess parameter to SystemEvent.jsp. |
| Unquoted Windows search path vulnerability in McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.0i (patch 11) and CMA 3.5 (patch 5) might allow local users to gain privileges via a malicious "program.exe" file in the C: folder, which is run by naPrdMgr.exe when it attempts to execute EntVUtil.EXE under an unquoted "Program Files" path. |
| Mcafee VirusScan 4.03 does not properly restrict access to the alert text file before it is sent to the Central Alert Server, which allows local users to modify alerts in an arbitrary fashion. |
| Entercept Agent 2.5 agent for Windows, released before May 21, 2002, allows local administrative users to obtain the entercept agent password, which could allow the administrators to log on as the entercept_agent account and conceal their identity. |
| McAfee Remote Desktop 3.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large number of packets to port 5045. |
| NetSchedScan 1.0 contains a buffer overflow vulnerability in the scan Hostname/IP field that allows local attackers to crash the application by supplying an oversized input string. Attackers can paste a crafted payload containing 388 bytes of data followed by 4 bytes of EIP overwrite into the Hostname/IP field to trigger a denial of service condition. |
| Trial installer for McAfee Total Protection (legacy trial installer software) 16.0.53 allows local privilege escalation because of an Uncontrolled Search Path Element. The attacker could be "an adversary or knowledgeable user" and the type of attack could be called "DLL-squatting." The issue only affects execution of this installer, and does not leave McAfee Total Protection in a vulnerable state after installation is completed. NOTE: This vulnerability only affects products that are no longer supported by the maintainer. |
| A command Injection Vulnerability in McAfee Agent (MA) for Windows prior to 5.7.5 allows local users to inject arbitrary shell code into the file cleanup.exe. The malicious clean.exe file is placed into the relevant folder and executed by running the McAfee Agent deployment feature located in the System Tree. An attacker may exploit the vulnerability to obtain a reverse shell which can lead to privilege escalation to obtain root privileges. |
| Improper privileges management vulnerability in McAfee Endpoint Security (ENS) Windows prior to 10.7.0 September 2021 Update allows local users to access files which they would otherwise not have access to via manipulating junction links to redirect McAfee folder operations to an unintended location. |
