Submission + - Exploit Found in Microsoft Access and HP Software
explosivejared writes: "US-CERT has issued two warnings this week about relating to Microsoft Access's handling of .MDB database files. The files are susceptible to stack buffer overflow vulnerabilities and allow the attacker to activate code on the infected machine remotely. US-CERT has not made a statement to the severity of the exploit other than the fact that is being actively used in attacks. A proof of the vulnerability has been out for almost a month. Warnings have also been issued by US-CERT for software found on HP laptops. A proof also exists for this exploit."
