Prior to 10.6.4, Symantec Messaging Gateway may be susceptible to a path traversal attack (also known as directory traversal). These types of attacks aim to access files and directories that are stored outside the web root folder. By manipulating variables, it may be possible to access arbitrary files and directories stored on the file system including application source code or configuration and critical system files.Show less

Prior to 4.4.1.10, the Norton Family Android App can be susceptible to an Information Disclosure issue. Information disclosure is a very common issue that attackers will attempt to exploit as a first pass across the application. As they probe the application they will take note of anything that may seem out of place or any bit of information they can use to their advantage such as error messages, system information, user data, version numbers, component names, URL paths, or even simple typos and misspellings.Show less

Prior to 4.4.1.10, the Norton Family Android App can be susceptible to a Denial of Service (DoS) exploit. A DoS attack is a type of attack whereby the perpetrator attempts to make a particular device unavailable to its intended user by temporarily or indefinitely disrupting services of a specific host within a network.Show less

Prior to ITMS 8.1 RU4, the Symantec Management Console can be susceptible to a directory traversal exploit, which is a type of attack that can occur when there is insufficient security validation / sanitization of user-supplied input file names, such that characters representing "traverse to parent directory" are passed through to the file APIs.Show less

Prior to SEE v11.1.3MP1, Symantec Endpoint Encryption can be susceptible to a denial of service (DoS) attack, which is a type of attack whereby the perpetrator attempts to make a particular machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users by temporarily or indefinitely disrupting services of a specific host within a network.Show less

Prior to SEP 14 RU1 Symantec Endpoint Protection product can encounter an issue of Tamper-Protection Bypass, which is a type of attack that bypasses the real time protection for the application that is run on servers and clients.Show less

Symantec Endpoint Protection prior to SEP 12.1 RU6 MP9 could be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue that allows a user to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected at lower access levels. In the circumstances of this issue, the capability of exploit is limited by the need to perform multiple file and directory writes to the local filesystem and as such, is not feasible in a standard drive-by type attack.Show less

Prior to SEP 12.1 RU6 MP9 & SEP 14 RU1 Symantec Endpoint Protection Windows endpoint can encounter a situation whereby an attacker could use the product's UI to perform unauthorized file deletes on the resident file system.Show less

In Symantec Endpoint Encryption before SEE 11.1.3HF3, a kernel memory leak is a type of resource leak that can occur when a computer program incorrectly manages memory allocations in such a way that memory which is no longer needed is not released. In object-oriented programming, a memory leak may happen when an object is stored in memory but cannot be accessed by the running code.Show less

In Symantec Encryption Desktop before SED 10.4.1 MP2HF1, a kernel memory leak is a type of resource leak that can occur when a computer program incorrectly manages memory allocations in such a way that memory which is no longer needed is not released. In object-oriented programming, a memory leak may happen when an object is stored in memory but cannot be accessed by the running code.Show less

A denial of service (DoS) attack in Symantec Encryption Desktop before SED 10.4.1 MP2HF1 allows remote attackers to make a particular machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users by temporarily or indefinitely disrupting services of a specific host within a network.Show less

A denial of service (DoS) attack in Symantec Endpoint Encryption before SEE 11.1.3HF2 allows remote attackers to make a particular machine or network resource unavailable to its intended users by temporarily or indefinitely disrupting services of a specific host within a network.Show less

Blue Coat Malware Analysis Appliance (MAA) before 4.2.5 and Malware Analyzer G2 allow remote attackers to bypass a virtual machine protection mechanism and consequently write to arbitrary files, cause a denial of service (host reboot or reset to factory defaults), or execute arbitrary code via vectors related to saving files during analysis.Show less

Symantec ProxyClient 3.4 for Windows is susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious local Windows user can, under certain circumstances, exploit this vulnerability to escalate their privileges on the system and execute arbitrary code with LocalSystem privileges.Show less

Symantec VIP Access for Desktop prior to 2.2.4 can be susceptible to a DLL Pre-Loading vulnerability. These types of issues occur when an application looks to call a DLL for execution and an attacker provides a malicious DLL to use instead. Depending on how the application is configured, the application will generally follow a specific search path to locate the DLL. The exploitation of the vulnerability manifests as a simple file write (or potentially an over-write) which results in a foreign executable running under the context of the application.Show less

The Symantec Messaging Gateway before 10.6.3-267 can encounter an issue of cross site request forgery (also known as one-click attack and is abbreviated as CSRF or XSRF), which is a type of malicious exploit of a website where unauthorized commands are transmitted from a user that the web application trusts. A CSRF attack attempts to exploit the trust that a specific website has in a user's browser.Show less

The Symantec Messaging Gateway before 10.6.3-267 can encounter an issue of remote code execution, which describes a situation whereby an individual may obtain the ability to execute commands remotely on a target machine or in a target process. In this type of occurrence, after gaining access to the system, the attacker may attempt to elevate their privileges.Show less
