Microsoft and Security 02/17/2004 09:21 PM

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-050:
Vulnerability in Microsoft Word and
Microsoft Excel Could Allow Arbitrary
Code to Run (831527)
11/13/2003 12:36 AM
A security vulnerability exists in Microsoft Word that could allow malicious code execution. This vulnerability exists due to to the way Word checks the length of a data value (Macro names) embedded in a document. If a specially crafted document were to be opened it could overflow a data value in Word and allow arbitrary code to be executed. If successfully exploited, an attacker could then take the same actions as the user had permissions to carry out, such as adding, changing or deleting data or files, communicating with a web site or formatting the hard drive.

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-025:
Cumulative Security Update for Internet
Explorer (867801)
08/02/2004 01:10 AM
This update resolves several newly discovered public vulnerabilities. Each vulnerability is documented in this bulletin in its own Vulnerability Details section. If a user is logged on with administrative privileges, an attacker who successfully exploited the most severe of these vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system, including installing programs; viewing, changing, or deleting data; or creating new accounts with full privileges. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer privileges on the system would be at less risk than users who operate with administrative privileges. Microsoft recommends that customers apply the update immediately.

Security At Microsoft


Security At Microsoft 11/18/2003 12:14 AM
Microsoft is committed to sharing its internal IT security practices in order to help its customers successfully secure their environments. This paper describes what Microsoft’s Corporate Security Group does to prevent malicious or unauthorized use of digital assets at Microsoft. This asset protection takes place through a formal risk management framework, risk management processes, and clear organizational roles and responsibilities. The basis of the approach is recognition that risk is an inherent part of any environment and that risk should be proactively managed. The principles and techniques described in this paper can be employed to manage risk at any organization.

Microsoft has had to deal with a lot of security concerns lately. With this in mind, Microsoft has announced their own security initiative to partner up with 25 systems integrators, security, management and networking companies. A spokesman for Microsoft admits that server customers have expressed that updates and patches are just not enough. Well, I like what I see so far, perhaps we can see some progress for homes users as well.

Over at Microsoft Monitor I see Microsoft revealed a whole bunch of security data about Microsoft's internal networks today. 2500 to 3000 attempted intrusions per day. And other interesting data. Also, points to a free anti-virus promotion Microsoft has put together with Computer Associates. If you aren't yet running anti-virus software, this is a good way to get it.
