MS14-033 – Important: Vulnerability in Microsoft XML Core Services Could Allow Information Disclosure (2966061) – Version: 1.1
Severity Rating: Important
Revision Note: V1.1 (July 10, 2014): Bulletin revised to remove the prerequisite requirement for the MSXML 6.0 update on Windows Server 2003 systems
Summary: This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow information disclosure if a logged on user visits a specially crafted website that is designed to invoke MSXML through Internet Explorer. In all cases, however, an attacker would have no way to force users to visit such websites. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to visit a website, typically by getting them to click a link in an email message or in an Instant Messenger request that takes users to the attacker’s website.
CVE-2014-2780 (windows_7, windows_8, windows_8.1, windows_server_2008, windows_server_2012, windows_vista)
DirectShow in Microsoft Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2 allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging control over a low-integrity process to execute a crafted application, aka “DirectShow Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability.”
CVE-2014-1824 (windows_7, windows_8, windows_8.1, windows_rt, windows_rt_8.1, windows_server_2008, windows_server_2012, windows_vista)
Windows Journal in Microsoft Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, and Windows RT Gold and 8.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Journal (aka .JNT) file, aka “Windows Journal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability.”
CVE-2014-1767 (windows_7, windows_8, windows_8.1, windows_rt, windows_rt_8.1, windows_server_2003, windows_server_2008, windows_server_2012, windows_vista)
Double free vulnerability in the Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) in afd.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, and Windows RT Gold and 8.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka “Ancillary Function Driver Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability.”
CVE-2014-2510 (centerstage, documentum_foundation_services, my_documentum_for_desktop, my_documentum_for_microsoft_outlook)
The JAXB XML parser in EMC Documentum Foundation Services (DFS) 6.6 before P39, 6.7 SP1 before P28, and 6.7 SP2 before P15, as used in My Documentum for Desktop, My Documentum for Microsoft Outlook, and CenterStage, allows remote authenticated users to read arbitrary files via an external entity declaration in conjunction with an entity reference, related to an XML External Entity (XXE) issue.

2960358 – Update for Disabling RC4 in .NET TLS – Version: 1.2
Revision Note: V1.2 (July 8, 2014): Advisory revised to announce a Microsoft Update Catalog detection change for the updates requiring installation of the 2868725 prerequisite update. This is a detection change only. Customers who have already successfully updated their systems do not need to take any action.
Summary: Microsoft is announcing the availability of an update for Microsoft .NET Framework that disables RC4 in Transport Layer Security (TLS) through the modification of the system registry. Use of RC4 in TLS could allow an attacker to perform man-in-the-middle attacks and recover plaintext from encrypted sessions.
MS14-040 – Important: Vulnerability in Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) Could Allow Elevation of Privilege (2975684) – Version: 1.0
Severity Rating: Important
Revision Note: V1.0 (July 8, 2014): Bulletin published.
Summary: This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow elevation of privilege an attacker logs onto a system and runs a specially crafted application. An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to log on locally to exploit this vulnerability.
MS14-042 – Moderate: Vulnerability in Microsoft Service Bus Could Allow Denial of Service (2972621) – Version: 1.0
Severity Rating: Moderate
Revision Note: V1.0 (July 8, 2014): Bulletin published
Summary: This security update resolves one publicly disclosed vulnerability in Microsoft Service Bus for Windows Server. The vulnerability could allow denial of service if a remote authenticated attacker creates and runs a program that sends a sequence of specially crafted Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) messages to the target system. Microsoft Service Bus for Windows Server is not shipped with any Microsoft operating system. For an affected system to be vulnerable Microsoft Service Bus must first be downloaded, installed, and configured, and then its configuration details (farm certificate) shared with other users.
