Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Google Desktop allows remote attackers to bypass protection schemes and inject arbitrary web script or HTML, and possibly gain full access to the system, by using an XSS vulnerability in google.com to extract the signature for the internal web server, then calling the "under" parameter in Advanced Search with the proper signature.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2007-1085 concerns Google Desktop, an old desktop search product. Public descriptions say attackers could combine a google.com XSS weakness with Google Desktop’s local web interface protections to inject script or HTML, with possible full system access. Current affected versions, patch status, and severity scoring are not supplied in the bundle. Likely limited to environments still running legacy Google Desktop or retaining old systems/images with the product installed. The bundle lists no specific affected versions or CPEs, so exposure must be validated through endpoint inventory rather than assumed from product names alone. Treat as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless Google Desktop is found on active endpoints. If present, prioritize removal or isolation because the described impact includes possible full system access, but the supplied evidence does not establish current active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoints for Google Desktop installations or remnants.; Check archived Google, CERT, and vendor advisory guidance for fixes or workarounds.; Retire Google Desktop where no business requirement remains..
