CVSS v3.1 |
| A privilege escalation vulnerability allows local users to execute arbitrary code as root via Sophos Endpoint for macOS older than version 2026.1.1 and Sophos Home for macOS older than version 10.11.6. |
| Sophos Anti-Virus 7.0.5, and other 7.x versions, when Runtime Behavioural Analysis is enabled, allows local users to cause a denial of service (reboot with the product disabled) and possibly gain privileges via a zero value in a certain length field in the ObjectAttributes argument to the NtCreateKey hooked System Service Descriptor Table (SSDT) function. |
| Sophos PureMessage for Microsoft Exchange 3.0 before 3.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (EdgeTransport.exe termination) via a TNEF-encoded message with a crafted rich text body that is not properly handled during conversion to plain text. NOTE: this might be related to CVE-2008-7104. |
| Sophos Anti-Virus 4.33.0, when Internet Explorer 6 or 7 is used, allows remote attackers to bypass detection of malware in an HTML document by placing an MZ header (aka "EXE info") at the beginning, and modifying the filename to have (1) no extension, (2) a .txt extension, or (3) a .jpg extension, as demonstrated by a document containing a CVE-2006-5745 exploit. |
| Sophos virus detection engine 2.75 on Linux and Unix, as used in Sophos Email Appliance, Pure Message for Unix, and Sophos Anti-Virus Interface (SAVI), allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (engine crash) via zero-length MIME attachments. |
| Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the web administration interface in Sophos ES1000 and ES4000 Email Security Appliance 2.1.0.0 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the (1) error and (2) go parameters to the login page. |
| Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Sophos SAVScan 4.33.0 for Linux, and possibly other products and versions, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted files that have been packed with (1) armadillo, (2) asprotect, or (3) asprotectSKE. |
| The installation of Sophos PureMessage for Microsoft Exchange 3.0 before 3.0.2, when both anti-virus and anti-spam are supported, does not create or launch the associated scan engines when the system is under heavy load, which has unspecified impact, probably remote bypass of scanner protection or a denial of service (message loss or delay). |
| Sophos PureMessage Scanner service (PMScanner.exe) in PureMessage for Microsoft Exchange 3.0 before 3.0.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (message queue delay and incomplete spam rule update) via a crafted (1) RTF or (2) PDF file. |
| Multiple Sophos Anti-Virus products, including Anti-Virus for Windows 5.x before 5.2.1 and 4.x before 4.05, when cabinet file inspection is enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a CAB file with "invalid folder count values," which leads to heap corruption. |
| Sophos Anti-Virus before 4.02, 4.5.x before 4.5.9, 4.6.x before 4.6.9, and 5.x before 5.1.4 allow remote attackers to hide arbitrary files and data via crafted ARJ archives, which are not properly scanned. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the Sophos Antivirus Library, as used by Sophos Antivirus, PureMessage, MailMonitor, and other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Visio file with a crafted sub record length. |
| McAfee Anti-Virus Engine DATS drivers before 4398 released on Oct 13th 2004 and DATS Driver before 4397 October 6th 2004 allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. |
| Sophos Small Business Suite 1.00 on Windows does not properly handle files whose names contain reserved MS-DOS device names such as (1) LPT1, (2) COM1, (3) AUX, (4) CON, or (5) PRN, which can allow malicious code to bypass detection when it is installed, copied, or executed. |
| Computer Associates (CA) InoculateIT 6.0, eTrust Antivirus r6.0 through r7.1, eTrust Antivirus for the Gateway r7.0 and r7.1, eTrust Secure Content Manager, eTrust Intrusion Detection, EZ-Armor 2.0 through 2.4, and EZ-Antivirus 6.1 through 6.3 allow remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. |
| Sophos Anti-Virus 3.93 does not check downloaded files for viruses when they have only been written, which creates a race condition and may allow remote attackers to bypass virus protection if the file is executed before the antivirus starts on system reboot. |
| Multiple interpretation error in unspecified versions of Sophos Antivirus allows remote attackers to bypass virus detection via a malicious executable in a specially crafted RAR file with malformed central and local headers, which can still be opened by products such as Winrar and PowerZip, even though they are rejected as corrupted by Winzip and BitZipper. |
| The firewall in Astaro Security Linux before 4.024 sends responses to SYN-FIN packets, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain information about the system and construct specialized attacks. |
| Multiple interpretation error in Sophos 3.91 with the 2.28.4 engine allows remote attackers to bypass virus scanning via a file such as BAT, HTML, and EML with an "MZ" magic byte sequence which is normally associated with EXE, which causes the file to be treated as a safe type that could still be executed as a dangerous file type by applications on the end system, as demonstrated by a "triple headed" program that contains EXE, EML, and HTML content, aka the "magic byte bug." |
| Eset Anti-Virus before 1.020 (16th September 2004) allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. |
