Microsoft Security Advisory (2490606): Vulnerability in Graphics Rendering Engine Could Allow Remote
Revision Note: V1.2 (January 19, 2011): Clarified that the Modify the Access Control List (ACL) on shimgvw.dll workaround only applies to Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 systems and added a new workaround, Disable viewing of thumbnails in Windows Explorer on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 systems. Advisory Summary:Microsoft is investigating new public reports of a vulnerability in the Windows Graphics Rendering Engine. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the security context of the logged-on user. 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.

NAME

       setcifsacl - Userspace helper to alter an ACL in a security descriptor for Common Internet File System (CIFS)

SYNOPSIS

       setcifsacl [-v|-a|-D|-M|-S] "{one or more ACEs}" {file system object}

DESCRIPTION

       This tool is part of the cifs-utils suite.

       setcifsacl is a userspace helper program for the Linux CIFS client file system.	It is intended to alter an ACL of a security descriptor
       for a file system object.  It is best utilized when an option of cifsacl is specified when mounting a cifs share in conjunction with
       winbind facility of Samba suite.  Whether a security descriptor to be set is applied or not is determined by the CIFS/SMB server.

OPTIONS

       -v
	   Print version number and exit.
       -a
	   Add one or more ACEs to an ACL of a security descriptor.  An ACE is added even if the same ACE exists in the ACL.
       -D
	   Delete one or more ACEs from an ACL of a security descriptor.  Entire ACE has to match in an existing ACL for the listed ACEs to be
	   deleted.
       -M
	   Modify one or more ACEs from an ACL of a security descriptor.  SID and type are used to match for existing ACEs to be modified with the
	   list of ACEs specified.
       -S
	   Set an ACL of security descriptor with the list of ACEs Existing ACL is replaced entirely with the specified ACEs.

       Every ACE entry starts with "ACL:" One or more ACEs are specified within double quotes.	Multiple ACEs are separated by a comma.

       Following fields of an ACE can be modified with possible values:

       SID: Either a name or a raw SID value.

       type: ALLOWED (0x0), DENIED (0x1), OBJECT_ALLOWED (0x5), OBJECT_DENIED (0x6)

       flags: OBJECT_INHERIT_FLAG (OI or 0x1), CONTAINER_INHERIT_FLAG (CI or 0x2), NO_PROPAGATE_INHERIT_FLAG (NI or 0x4), INHERIT_ONLY_FLAG (IO or
       0x8), INHERITED_ACE_FLAG (IA or 0x10) or a combination/OR of these values.

       mask: Either one of FULL, CHANGE, READ, a combination of R W X D P O, or a hex value

EXAMPLES

       Add an ACE
       setcifsacl -a "ACL:CIFSTESTDOMuser2:DENIED/0x1/D" <file_name> setcifsacl -a "ACL:CIFSTESTDOMuser1:ALLOWED/OI|CI|NI/D" <file_name>

       Delete an ACE
       setcifsacl -D "ACL:S-1-1-0:0x1/OI/0x1201ff" <file_name>

       Modify an ACE
       setcifsacl -M "ACL:CIFSTESTDOMuser1:ALLOWED/0x1f/CHANGE" <file_name>

       Set an ACL
       setcifsacl -S "ACL:CIFSTESTDOMAdministrator:0x0/0x0/FULL,
       ACL:CIFSTESTDOMuser2:0x0/0x0/FULL," <file_name>

NOTES

       Kernel support for getcifsacl/setcifsacl utilities was initially introduced in the 2.6.37 kernel.
