The version of Symantec Protection Engine installed on the remote host is 7.0.x prior to 7.0.5 HF01, 7.5.x prior to 7.5.3 HF03, or 7.8.x prior to 7.8.0 HF01. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An array indexing error exists in the Unpack::ShortLZ()     function within file unpack15.cpp due to improper     validation of input when decompressing RAR files. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via     a specially crafted file, to corrupt memory, resulting     in a denial of service condition or the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2207)

  - A stack-based buffer overflow condition exists when     handling PowerPoint files due to improper validation of     user-supplied input while handling misaligned stream     caches. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via a specially crafted PPT file, to cause a     denial of service condition or the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2209)

  - A stack-based buffer overflow condition exists in the     CSymLHA::get_header() function within file Dec2LHA.dll     due to improper validation of user-supplied input when     decompressing LZH and LHA archive files. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted archive file, to cause a denial of     service condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-2210)

  - Multiple unspecified flaws exist in libmspack library     due to improper validation of user-supplied input. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these, via     a specially crafted CAB file, to corrupt memory,     resulting in a denial of service condition or the     execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-2211)

  - A heap buffer overflow condition exists in the     CMIMEParser::UpdateHeader() function due to improper     validation of user-supplied input when parsing MIME     messages. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this, via a specially crafted MIME message, to     cause a denial of service condition or the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-3644)

  - An integer overflow condition exists in the     Attachment::setDataFromAttachment() function within file     Dec2TNEF.dll due to improper validation of user-supplied     input when decoding TNEF files. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially     crafted TNEF file, to cause a denial of service     condition or the execution of arbitrary code.
    (CVE-2016-3645)

  - An array indexing error exists in the     ALPkOldFormatDecompressor::UnShrink() function within     the scan engine decomposer due to improper validation of     input when decoding ZIP files. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially     crafted ZIP file, to corrupt memory, resulting in a     denial of service condition or the execution of     arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-3646)
