  Descrizione

This update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows, which could allow elevation of privilege. The exploit works if an attacker is logged on locally using valid logon credentials and runs a specially crafted application. More specifically, this update addresses the vulnerabilities by correcting the way by which the Windows kernel-mode drivers allocate memory, free unused objects, manage kernel-mode driver objects, and validate input passed from user mode.
