| MS11-034 | Vulnerabilities in Windows Kernel-Mode Drivers Could Allow Elevation of Privilege (2506223) | Windows XP | Critical | 13-04-2011 |
Technical Information
Brief overview of the risk:
The vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logged on locally and ran a specially crafted application. An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to log on locally to exploit these vulnerabilities.
Detailed Information on the risk:
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists due to the way that Windows Kernel-mode drivers manage pointers to kernel-mode driver objects. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
