DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered multiple vulnerabilities in Autonomy
KeyView, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS
(Denial of Service) or compromise a vulnerable system.

1) A boundary error when parsing records in compound documents can be
exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by tricking a user
into viewing e.g. a specially crafted Quattro Pro file.

2) A boundary error in the SpreadSheet Lotus 123 reader (wkssr.dll)
when converting floating point values can be exploited to cause a
stack-based buffer overflow.

3) Two boundary errors in the SpreadSheet Lotus 123 reader
(wkssr.dll) when parsing certain records can be exploited to cause
stack-based buffer overflows.

4) An error in the SpreadSheet Lotus 123 reader (wkssr.dll) when
allocating an array of pointers during the parsing of a certain
record can be exploited to corrupt heap memory when later parsing
strings in a specially crafted file.

5) An integer underflow error in the SpreadSheet Lotus 123 reader
(wkssr.dll) when parsing the size of a certain record can be
exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

6) A signedness error in the RTF reader (rtfsr.dll) when parsing the
argument to the "\ls" keyword within a list override table entry in
RTF files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow.

7) A boundary error in the WordPerfect 5 reader (wosr.dll) when
parsing data blocks can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer
overflow.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of
arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 10.4 and 10.9. Other
versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches for versions 10.10, 10.9, 10.8, 10.5, 10.4, 10.3, 9.2,
and 7.4.
