Volevo avvisare tutti che se viene installata la ms02-068, va reinstallata
la versione v4 (del 20 novembre) della ms02-050 (quella sul certificate
spoofing, 7 mega).
Ciao

Sicuro? Ho installato ieri la Q324929 e WindowsUpdate non mi dice nulla
della ms02-050 (che avevo gia' installato giorni fa). Il tutto su
Win2KSP3 con IE5.5SP2. 
Hai controllato a mano le versioni dei files installati e hai visto che
la nuova patch ha versioni piu' vecchie? 
Grazie delle info!

 Win2KSP3 con IE5.5SP2. 
Si' me ne sono accorto anche io.
Installando la patch da windowsupdate non mi viene piu' segnalata come
mancante la 50, se invece la prelevo dal sito /technet/security, poi devo
anche rimettere la 50.

Reason for Revision:
====================
This is an updated bulletin describing a cumulative patch for
Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0. The original patch released on
December 4, 2002 is unchanged. However since releasing the
patch, Microsoft has received a report suggesting that the
vulnerability addressed by this bulletin could be exploited to
run arbitrary code on a user's machine. Microsoft investigated
that report, and was able to develop a demonstration that
exploits the vulnerability to run arbitrary code. We have
released this updated bulletin to advise customers of our new
assessment of the potential impact of the vulnerability, and
of its updated severity rating.
Issue:
======
This is an updated bulletin describing a cumulative patch for
Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0. The original patch is unchanged and,
in addition to including the functionality of all previously
released patches for Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0, eliminates one
additional flaw in Internet Explorer's cross-domain security model.
This flaw occurs because the security checks that Internet Explorer
carries out when particular object caching techniques are used in
web pages are incomplete. This could have the effect of allowing an
attacker to execute commands on a user's system.
Exploiting the vulnerability could enable an attacker to invoke an
executable that was already present on the local system. It could
also allow an attacker to load a malicious executable onto a user's
system, or to pass parameters to an executable. However, a registry
key setting discussed in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 810687
disables shortcuts in HTML Help, which significantly reduces the
scope of this vulnerability as it removes the ability to load a
malicious executable on a user's system or to pass parameters to an
executable.
An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a web
page that uses a cached programming technique, and could then
either host it on a web site or send it to a user via email. In the
case of the web-based attack vector the page could be automatically
opened when a user visited the site. In the case of the HTML mail-
based attack vector, the page could be opened when the recipient
opened the mail or viewed it using the Preview pane.
On December 4, 2002, Microsoft released the original version of
this bulletin. Subsequent to that time, Microsoft received a report
suggesting that the vulnerability addressed by this bulletin could
be exploited to run arbitrary code on a user's machine. Microsoft
investigated that report, and was able to develop a demonstration
that exploits the vulnerability to run arbitrary code. We have
released this updated bulletin to advise customers of our new
assessment of the potential impact of the vulnerability, and of its
updated severity rating.
The original patch released with this bulletin was and is effective
in preventing exploitation of the vulnerability. It is also
effective in eliminating all vulnerabilities addressed by prior
bulletins that could allow a malicious party to run code on the
machine of a user who visited a hostile web site or opened a
malicious HTML email message. Microsoft strongly urges all
customers to install the patch.
Mitigating Factors:
====================
- -Internet Explorer 5.01 is not affected by this vulnerability.
- -The web-based attack scenario would provide no way for the attacker
 to force users to visit the site. Instead, the attacker would need
 to lure them there, typically by getting them to click on a link
 that would take them to the attacker's site.
- -The HTML mail-based attack scenario would be blocked by Outlook
 Express 6.0 and Outlook 2002 in their default configurations, and
 by Outlook 98 and 2000 if used in conjunction with the Outlook
 Email Security Update.
- -If the steps described in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 810687
 have been taken to restrict shortcuts in HTML Help, then the
 following mitigating factors apply:
  -The vulnerability would allow an attacker to read but not add,
   delete or modify files on the user's local system.
  -The attacker would need to know the name and location of any file
   on the system to successfully invoke it. If invoked, there would
be
   no way for an attacker to pass parameters to that executable.
  -The vulnerability would not provide any way for an attacker to put
   a program of their choice onto another user's system.
Risk Rating:
============
Critical

Pero' poi nel testo dice che la patch in quanto tale non ha subito
modifiche, visto che hanno solo cambiato il documento che l'accompagna.
