Signature Detail

HTTP: Microsoft Windows Graphics Rendering Engine EMF Parsing Memory Corruption

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that GDI+ handles parsing of EMF image files. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing the target user to open a crafted EMF file image. Successful exploitation can result in memory corruption which may lead to arbitrary code execution under the credentials of the currently logged in user. In a successful attack case, the malicious code can be executed on the target host. The behaviour of the target depends upon the intention of the attacker. The code will be executed with the privileges of the logged in user. In case if the attack is not successful, the application using the affected library might be terminated due to memory corruption.

Extended Description

Microsoft GDI+ is prone to a remote memory-corruption vulnerability that occurs when an application that uses the library tries to process a specially crafted EMF (Enhanced Metafile) image file. Successfully exploiting this issue would allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user. UPDATE (March 25, 2009): Further investigation reveals that technical details and an exploit regarding 'GpFont.SetData()', which were added to this BID on March 24, 2009, actually pertain to a new issue. Please see BID 34250 'Microsoft GDI+ EMF 'GpFont.SetData()' Buffer Overflow Vulnerability' for details.
