-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Symantec Vulnerability Research http://www.symantec.com/research Security Advisory Advisory ID: SYMSA-2007-009 Advisory Title: RemoteDocs R-Viewer Code Execution and Sensitive Information Disclosure Author: Adam Baldiwn / adam_baldwin (at) symantec (dot) com [email concealed] Release Date: 17-09-2007 Application: RemoteDocs R-Viewer 1.6.2836 Platform: Windows Severity: Remotely exploitable / User access Vendor status: Update available CVE Number: CVE-2007-4750 CVE-2007-4751 Reference: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/25591 Overview: RemoteDocs R-Viewer is a secure document viewer used by remotedocs.com. There exists a design flaw in RemoteDocs R-Viewer where code can be executed upon opening the RDZ file without any knowlege or warning to the user. Additionally, temporary files are not properly removed of disk exposing the encrypted data. Details: The problem is due to a design flaw in the R-Viewer application. It is possible to replace the normal encrypted RDZ file with a specially crafted RDZ file. The first file in this archive will be executed with current user privledges by the R-Viewer application based strictly on file extension alone. To further compound this issue it may be possible for an attacker to gain other sensitive information from the R-Viewer application through easily predictable temporary directories that don't appear to expire content regularily. Included inside of these temorary directories are the unecnrypted copies of the documents the R-Viewer application has opened in the past. Example: C:\Program Files\RemoteDocs\Viewer\tmp\31325193(1) <-- First opening C:\Program Files\RemoteDocs\Viewer\tmp\31325193(2) <-- Second opening Vendor Response: RemoteDocs Engineers have verified these issues and have resolved them in the latest product release R-Viewer 1.6.3768. RemoteDocs recommends all customers immediately obtain the newest version of R-Viewer to protect against these types of threats. RemoteDocs is unaware of any adverse customer impact from these issues. There are no known publicly available exploits. Recommendation: All users should upgrade to the latest version of R-Viewer 1.6.3768. Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) Information: The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project has assigned the following names to these issues.
