Posted on 25 November 2008

Severity Rating: Important - Revision Note: V2.0 (November 25, 2008): Bulletin updated: added Windows XP Service Pack 3 as an Affected Product. Step-by-Step Interactive Training is not installed on Windows by default and therefore this security update should be applied to systems running Windows XP Service Pack 3.Summary: This update resolves a newly discovered, privately reported vulnerability. The Step-by-Step Interactive Training has a remote code execution vulnerability that could allow an attacker to take complete control of an affected system. The vulnerability is documented in the "Vulnerability Details" section of this bulletin. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. We recommend that customers apply the update at the earliest opportunity.
