DESCRIPTION:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Microsoft Windows, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
1) DirectShow loads certain libraries in an insecure manner, which
can be exploited to load arbitrary libraries by tricking a user into
e.g. opening .wtv, .drv-ms, or .mpg files located on a remote WebDAV
or SMB share.
2) An unspecified error exists within the Stream Buffer Engine
(SBE.dll) when parsing Microsoft Digital Video Recording (.dvr-ms)
media files.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
SOLUTION:
Apply patches.
