Discussion

Microsoft Outlook 2003 Media File Script Execution Vulnerability

Microsoft Outlook is reportedly prone to a media file script execution vulnerability. This issue is due to a design error that would allow for the execution of scripts located in media files regardless of security settings.

This issue might allow an attacker to execute arbitrary files on the affected computer. Leveraging other issues, such as the Microsoft Outlook 2003 Predictable File Location Weakness (BID 10307), it might be possible for an attacker to execute arbitrary, attacker-supplied code.
