Hi @ll,

the current "Microsoft Live Meeting 2007 client" (available from
<http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA101733831033.aspx>,
referenced as update in <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2536683>,
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2505941>,

contains and installs vulnerable and outdated MSVC++ 2005 runtime libraries
(even if newer MSVC++ runtime libraries are already present on the target
system).

Unfortunately the libraries are installed in the application's own directory,
where they are NOT detected by "Windows Update Agent" (and f^Htools like
"Secunia Personal Inspector") and are therefore NOT updated via Windows/
Microsoft update!


The problem in general is well known (<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/835322>
"Applications that bypass globally serviced side-by-side assemblies may be 
vulnerable to issues that are fixed by a Microsoft
software update")
but apparently the vendor doesn't seem to care!

JFTR: the MSVC++ 2005 runtime libraries are NOT listed in the "file information"
section in any of the MSKB articles for the "Live Meeting 2007 client update"!


Other DLLs (which are listed in the MSKB articles, I'm using
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2536683> here as reference) are outdated
too:

Again the developers dont follow their employers own guidelines
(see <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ms997548.aspx> for example):

| If a file is shared, but only among your applications, create a
| subfolder in the following location and store the file there:
|
| C:\Program Files\Common Files\Company Name
|
| Alternatively, for application "suite" installations where multiple
| applications are bundled together, you can create suite subfolders as
| follows:
|
| For your executable files:
|
| C:\Program Files\Suite Name
|
| For your support files shared only within the suite:
|
| C:\Program Files\Suite Name\System

but create a mess instead and place numerous copies of these (and some more)
libraries in various different locations!

Timeline:

2012-03-16    problem reported

2012-03-17    vendor acknowledges the report, opens MSRC case and asks for
              "responsible disclosure"

2012-03-23    vendor sends update "case manager assigned"

2012-04-09    vendor sends update "still under investigation"

2012-07-03    vendor answers "investigation complete" and acknowledges the
              facts, but will not issue an MSRC bulletin since they were
              unable to find any attack vectors
