Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM) prior to and including 12.1 RU6 MP9 and prior to 14.2 RU1 may be susceptible to a DLL Preloading vulnerability, which is a type of issue that can occur when an application looks to call a DLL for execution and an attacker provides a malicious DLL to use instead.

Symantec Endpoint Protection prior to 14.2 MP1 may be susceptible to a DLL Preloading vulnerability, which in this case is an issue that can occur when an application being installed unintentionally loads a DLL provided by a potential attacker. Note that this particular type of exploit only manifests at install time; no remediation is required for software that has already been installed. This issue only impacted the Trialware media for Symantec Endpoint Protection, which has since been updated.

The ActiveDataInfo.LaunchProcess method in the SymAData.ActiveDataInfo.1 ActiveX control 2.7.0.1 in SYMADATA.DLL in multiple Symantec Norton products including Norton 360 1.0, AntiVirus 2006 through 2008, Internet Security 2006 through 2008, and System Works 2006 through 2008, does not properly determine the location of the AutoFix Tool, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a remote (1) WebDAV or (2) SMB share.

Norton Power Eraser (prior to 5.3.0.24) and SymDiag (prior to 2.1.242) may be susceptible to a DLL Preloading vulnerability, which is a type of issue that can 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, it will generally follow a specific search path to locate the DLL. The vulnerability can be exploited by a simple file write (or potentially an over-write) which results in a foreign DLL running under the context of the application.

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.

Multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in Symantec Altiris WISE Package Studio before 8.0MR1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via unspecified vectors.

Symantec Ghost Solution Suite 2.x through 2.5.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted backup file.

The Symantec Content Analysis (CA) 1.3, 2.x prior to 2.2.1.1, and Mail Threat Defense (MTD) 1.1 management consoles are susceptible to a cross-site request forging (CSRF) vulnerability. A remote attacker can use phishing or other social engineering techniques to access the management console with the privileges of an authenticated administrator user.

Symantec Endpoint Protection clients place detected malware in quarantine as part of the intended product functionality. The quarantine logs can be exported for review by the user in a variety of formats including .CSV files. Prior to 14.0 MP1 and 12.1 RU6 MP7, the potential exists for file metadata to be interpreted and evaluated as a formula. Successful exploitation of an attack of this type requires considerable direct user-interaction from the user exporting and then opening the log files on the intended target client.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Symantec Decomposer, as used in certain Symantec antivirus products including Symantec Scan Engine 5.1.2 and other versions before 5.1.6.31, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed RAR file to the Internet Content Adaptation Protocol (ICAP) port (1344/tcp).

SEP (Mac client) prior to and including 12.1 RU6 MP9 and prior to 14.2 RU1 may be susceptible to a CSV/DDE injection (also known as formula injection) vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an application or website allows untrusted input into CSV files.

Symantec Ghost Solution Suite (GSS) versions prior to 3.3 RU1 may be susceptible to a DLL hijacking vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby a potential attacker attempts to execute unexpected code on your machine. This occurs via placement of a potentially foreign file (DLL) that the attacker then attempts to run via a linked application.

An issue was discovered in DisplayLink Core Software Cleaner Application 8.2.1956. When the drivers are updated to a newer version, the product launches a process as SYSTEM to uninstall the old version: cl_1956.exe is run as SYSTEM on the %systemroot%\Temp folder, where any user can write a DLL (e.g., version.dll) to perform DLL Hijacking and elevate privileges to SYSTEM.

A DLL hijacking vulnerability exists in Schneider Electric's SoMove Software and associated DTM software components in all versions prior to 2.6.2 which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.

An issue was discovered in PureVPN through 5.19.4.0 on Windows. The client installation grants the Everyone group Full Control permission to the installation directory. In addition, the PureVPNService.exe service, which runs under NT Authority\SYSTEM privileges, tries to load several dynamic-link libraries using relative paths instead of the absolute path. When not using a fully qualified path, the application will first try to load the library from the directory from which the application is started. As the residing directory of PureVPNService.exe is writable to all users, this makes the application susceptible to privilege escalation through DLL hijacking.

DLL Side-Loading vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Client in McAfee True Key before 4.20.110 allows local users to gain privilege elevation via not verifying a particular DLL file signature.

In Sophos Tester Tool 3.2.0.7 Beta, the driver loads (in the context of the application used to test an exploit or ransomware) the DLL using a payload that runs from NTDLL.DLL (so, it's run in userland), but the driver doesn't perform any validation of this DLL (not its signature, not its hash, etc.). A person can change this DLL in a local way, or with a remote connection, to a malicious DLL with the same name -- and when the product is used, this malicious DLL will be loaded, aka a DLL Hijacking attack.
