03.83.2015 - MS15-031 - Important: Vulnerability in Schannel Could Allow Security Feature Bypass (3046049) - Version: 1.1



View Microsoft related news. Severity Rating: Important
Revision Note: V1.1 (March 24, 2015): Revised bulletin to add an FAQ directing customers to Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 3050509 for instructions on how to disable EXPORT ciphers after installing the update on Windows Server 2003 systems.
Summary: This security update resolves a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows that facilitates exploitation of the publicly disclosed FREAK technique, an industry-wide issue that is not specific to Windows operating systems. The vulnerability could allow a man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attacker to force the downgrading of the key length of an RSA key to EXPORT-grade length in a TLS connection. Any Windows system using Schannel to connect to a remote TLS server with an exploitable cipher suite is affected.

03.75.2015 - MS15-027 - Important: Vulnerability in NETLOGON Could Allow Spoofing (3002657) - Version: 2.0



View Microsoft related news. Severity Rating: Important
Revision Note: V2.0 (March 16, 2015): To address a connectivity issue with update 3002657 when installed on supported editions of Windows Server 2003, Microsoft released update 3002657-v2 for all supported editions of Windows Server 2003. Customers who have not already installed the 3002657 update should install update 3002657-v2 to be fully protected from this vulnerability. To avoid the possibility of future detection logic problems, Microsoft recommends that customers running Windows Server 2003 who have already successfully installed the 3002657 update also apply update 3002657-v2 even though they are already protected from this vulnerability. Customers running other Microsoft operating systems are not affected by this rerelease and do not need to take any action. See Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 3002657 for more information.
Summary: This security update resolves a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow spoofing if an attacker who is logged on to a domain-joined system runs a specially crafted application that could establish a connection with other domain-joined systems as the impersonated user or system. The attacker must be logged on to a domain-joined system and be able to observe network traffic.

Revision Note: V2.0 (March 16, 2015): To address a packaging issue for customers who are repeatedly reoffered security update 3033395 when installed on systems running supported editions of Windows Server 2003, Microsoft released update 3033395-v2 for all supported editions of Windows Server 2003. Customers who have not already installed the 3033395 update should install update 3033395-v2 to be fully protected from this vulnerability. To avoid the possibility of future detection logic problems, Microsoft recommends that customers running Windows Server 2003 who have already successfully installed the 3033395 update also apply update 3033395-v2 even though they are already protected from this vulnerability. Customers running other Microsoft operating systems are not affected by this rerelease and do not need to take any action. See Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 3033395 for more information.
Summary: This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on to an affected system and runs a specially crafted application. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the security context of the account of another user who is logged on to the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts potentially with full user rights.
