Security firm eEye Digital Security has discovered four more critical vulnerabilities in three Symantec products and released basic details about them in its upcoming advisory section where it maintains a list of flaws its researchers have found in software.

After it began the policy of informing the public of upcoming security advisories, eEye normally informs the vendor and then waits for a patch before issuing full details of the flaw in question.

All four vulnerabilities affect Norton Internet Security 2004, Norton Internet Security 2004 Professional, and Norton Personal Firewall 2004 and could result in the execution of remote code.

Three were described as "remotely-exploitable vulnerabilities that allows anonymous attackers to compromise default installations of the affected software and gain absolute access to the host machine" while the fourth was said to be "a remotely-exploitable vulnerability that allows an anonymous attacker to execute a severe denial-of-service attack against systems running default installations of the affected software."
