Windows Journal Memory Corruption Vulnerability
Description: A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Windows when a specially crafted Journal file is opened in Windows Journal. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause arbitrary code to execute in the context of the current user. If a user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take control of the 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.
For an attack to be successful, this vulnerability requires that a user open a specially

## Vulnerability Spotlight: Symantec Norton Security IDSvix86 PE Remote System Denial of Service
Vulnerability discovered by Piotr Bania of Cisco Talos
Talos is disclosing the presence of a denial of service vulnerability (CVE-2016-5308 / TALOS-2016-0182 ) in the Portable Executable file scanning functionality of Symantec Norton Security. A specially crafted PE file can cause an access violation in the IDSvix86 kernel driver when parsing PE files resulting in a denial of service.
A malicious attacker could trigger this vulnerability by emailing the victim a crafted file with a large SizeOfRawData field in a section header. The parser does not check to make sure that this is within the bounds of the file, or MD5Compress which is the function that causes the segfault, therefore if the par
