Details
A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in Microsoft Office 2000/2003/2004/Xp (Office Suite Software). This affects an unknown functionality. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a code injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-94. The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:
Microsoft Word in Office 2000 SP3, XP SP3, Office 2003 SP2, Works Suite 2004 to 2006, and Office 2004 for Mac allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Word file with a malformed drawing object, which leads to memory corruption.
The bug was discovered 02/13/2007. The weakness was released 02/13/2007 by Shih-hao Weng with Information and Communication Security Technology (Website). The advisory is shared at us-cert.gov. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2007-0209 since 01/12/2007. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1059 for this issue.
It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 2808 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $25k-$100k. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 24328 (MS07-014 / MS07-015: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Word and Office Could Allow Remote Code Execution (929434 / 932554) (Mac OS X)), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family MacOS X Local Security Checks and running in the context l. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 110052 (Microsoft Word Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (MS07-014)).
Applying a patch is able to eliminate this problem. A possible mitigation has been published before and not just after the disclosure of the vulnerability.
The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (32104), Tenable (24328), SecurityFocus (BID 22482†), OSVDB (34386†) and SecurityTracker (ID 1017639†).
