CVE-2010-3497
6.4
Vector
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P
Exploitability: 10.0 / Impact: 4.9
Source: NVD
Description
Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2011 does not properly interact with the processing of hcp:// URLs by the Microsoft Help and Support Center, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malware that is correctly detected by this product, but with a detection approach that occurs too late to stop the code execution. NOTE: the researcher indicates that a vendor response was received, stating that this issue "falls into the work of our Firewall and not our AV (per our methodology of layers of defense)."
