Vulnerability Spotlight: Multiple Antenna House Vulnerabilities
Summary: Cisco Talos discovered six vulnerabilities in Antenna House Office Server Document Converter, a product that converts Microsoft Office documents into PDF and SVG files. The flaws, reported as TALOS-2018-0596 through TALOS-2018-0603, are triggered by specially crafted .ppt and .doc files and can cause heap corruption, stack-based buffer overflows, and an out-of-bounds write in the GetShapePropery method, leading to code execution.
What you should know: The code can run remotely when the converter is used in batch mode, since a maliciously crafted document may be handled automatically and give an attacker full control of the system. Eight Snort rules (46843, 46844, 46845, 46946, 46768, 46769, 46761, 46762) are listed to detect exploitation attempts.
