Hello lists,

 SehaTo (sehato at yandex ru) reported few vulnerabilities in different
 Windows applications. Original messages (in Russian) may be found at
 http://securityvulns.com/source16446.html

 1. Microsoft Windows Explorer corrupted WMF vulnerability
 http://securityvulns.com/news/Microsoft/Windows/Explorer/DoS.html

 Windows explorer (explorer.exe) crashes on browsing folder with
 corrupted WMF files.

 SecurityVulns note: from the very fast debugging results analysis on
 Windows XP SP2, there is potential code execution possibility (memory
 corruption), because attacker-controllable data is used to contruct
 both read and write memory addresses. Deeper research of exploitation
 possibility was not performed.

 2. IfranView / Microsoft Office 2003 malformed WMF crash
 http://securityvulns.com/news/IrfanView/WMF/DoS.html

 IfranView crashes on attempt to view malformed WMF, Microsoft Office
 crashes on attempt to insert corrupted WMF file.

 SecurityVulns note: because of relatively low impact, SecurityVulns did
 no research on this vulnerability.

 3. 2 different Microsoft Excel DoS conditions
 http://securityvulns.com/news/Microsoft/Excel/XML/DoS.html

 2 different crashes in Microsoft Excel on parsing .XLS files (corrupted
 XML and corrupted XLS formats).

 SecurityVulns note: vulnerabilities confirmed on Microsoft Excel 2003.
 Both vulnerabilities are of NULL-pointer dereference type. Code
 execution is probably impossible.
