EDITED ON AUGUST 25, 2006:

ok mdgx.


Still wondering if an unofficial Win95 Q249824 VOLTRACK.VXD patch will be made. MS KB article 249824 DOES mention Windows 95.



The Win98/ME JSCRIPT.DLL MS06-023 fix for Win98 REQUIRES WSH 5.6 (build 8825) installed first. It wont work with other versions of WSH such as WSH 5.1 & 5.5.

Thats OMG!
MS made actual new patch for Windows?
Where did you find it?! I can't see any info about it on page.
Slovenian update still without new KRNL386.EXE...

This does not look like patch from Microsoft. Please look inside. This is just binary patch - but from what source?

Petr

Yes, and should it should replace MS patch?
I believe 2 vulnerabilites meant in article are separated.

I got the patch from anonymous source.
Sender states it's from MS, so I created installer for it with Iexpress [same style as all other MS patches, just the QFE*.* files are missing ].
Enjoy.
This is the explanation:

Really i'm lost... Should i remove or stay with my current check code?
As I understand, this patch does not check icon before loading, it removes theoretical exploit possibility, preventing buffer overrun.
MDGx, maybe you should add OS checking code? I don't think that it will be good to install it on other OSes.

Your anonymous source has sent you a file that is 100% not from Mirosoft. It is binary patched version 4.10.1998. It is interesting that the internal string "Windows 98" was changed to "Windows 98H". You can also note that the "SpecialBuild: QFE" is omitted.
Petr

Really, it looks like hexed (even resources aren't changed) file. But why it can't be from MS?
It looks like high quality patch anyway.

Do you think that people in Microsoft lost the source code and are hexing their files??

Yes, everything is possible, but ...

Petr

I've also noticed the 98H strings and hex patch.
But looks like quality patch.
I'll get more info and will let you guys know.

What VOLTRACK.VXD do you mean? 4.10.1999 from Q234697 that is intended for Win98 PC-AT Japanese? Or some else?

Petr

Maybe they have not lost the code for those files but these are most likely to have been written long time ago in assembler and compiled with MASM. Those who wrote them may now be dead (there are some legends about that) or more simply not working for Microsoft anymore for obvious reasons.

So far as I have grasped reading posts at the Win32Asm Forum and the Masm Forum, it is very difficult if not often impossible for even highly skilled and experienced assembly progammers to make sense of even small snippets of code someone else wrote if is not exhaustively documented line by line.

So yes I think it is very possible MS could be hexing their files.
