VAR-201208-0090

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-11 22:56

Symantec Norton AntiVirus 2011 does not properly interact with the processing of hcp:// URLs by the Microsoft Help and Support Center, which makes it easier for remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malware that is correctly detected by this product, but with a detection approach that occurs too late to stop the code execution. NOTE: the researcher indicates that a vendor response was received, stating that this issue "falls into the work of our Firewall and not our AV (per our methodology of layers of defense).". Symantec Norton Antivirus 2011 is prone to a security-bypass vulnerability that may allow an attacker to bypass virus scans. Successful exploits will allow attackers to bypass virus scanning, possibly allowing malicious files to escape detection
