Synopsis
The Windows kernel is affected by several vulnerabilities that could allow escalation of privileges.
Description
The remote Windows host is running a version of the Windows kernel that is affected by one or more of the following vulnerabilities :
- Improper valiation of an argument passed to a system call can result in a denial of service. (CVE-2010-1887)
- Certain unspecified exceptions are not properly handled which could result in arbitrary code execution in the kernel. (CVE-2010-1894)
- Memory is not properly allocated when making a copy from user mode, which could result in an elevation of privileges. (CVE-2010-1895)
- Unspecified input from user mode is not properly validated, which could result in arbitrary code execution in the kernel. (CVE-2010-1896)
- Unspecified parameters are not properly validated when creating a new window, which could result in arbitrary code execution in the kernel. (CVE-2010-1897)
Solution
Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, 7, and 2008 R2.
