MS15-108: Security Update for JScript and VBScript to Address Remote Code Execution (3089659)

high Nessus Plugin ID 86365

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The VBScript and JScript engines on the remote host are affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

- Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in the VBScript and JScript engines due to improper handling of objects in memory. A remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to visit a specially crafted website, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2015-2482, CVE-2015-6055)

- A security feature bypass vulnerability exists in the VBScript and JScript engines due to a failure to use Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). An attacker can exploit this to predict memory offsets in a call stack. (CVE-2015-6052)

- An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the VBScript and JScript engines due to improper handling of objects in memory. A remote attacker can exploit this to disclose the contents of memory. (CVE-2015-6059)

Solution

Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows Vista, 2008, and 2008 R2.
