Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Autonomy KeyView IDOL before 10.16, as used in Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange before 6.5.8, Symantec Mail Security for Domino before 8.1.1, Symantec Messaging Gateway before 10.0.1, Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) before 11.6.1, IBM Notes 8.5.x, IBM Lotus Domino 8.5.x before 8.5.3 FP4, and other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted file, related to "a number of underlying issues" in which "some of these cases demonstrated memory corruption with attacker-controlled input and could be exploited to run arbitrary code."

Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM) and Symantec Mail Security for MS Exchange (SMSMSE), prior to versions 14.2 RU2 and 7.5.x respectively, may be susceptible to a privilege escalation vulnerability, which is a type of issue whereby an attacker may attempt to compromise the software application to gain elevated access to resources that are normally protected from an application or user.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the SpreadSheet Lotus 123 reader (wkssr.dll), as used in Autonomy KeyView 10.4 and 10.9, Symantec Mail Security, and possibly other products, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors related to floating point conversion in unknown record types.
