Detailed Description |
The hotfix (MS07-010, 932135) for 'Vulnerability in Microsoft Malware Protection Engine' has not been applied. Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP1 and SP2, and Server 2003 up to SP1, and Vista could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable system, caused due to an integer overflow error in the Microsoft Malware Protection Engine (mpengine.dll) when processing a specially crafted PDF file. By sending an email containing a specially-crafted PDF file to a system being protected by a vulnerable application, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code on the system.
* Note: This check requires an account with Guest or upper privileges which can access the registry of the remote host to scan. Absence of these condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
