MS10-069: Vulnerability in Windows Client/Server Runtime Subsystem Could Allow Elevation of Privilege (2121546)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 49227

Language:

Synopsis

Users can elevate their privileges on the remote host.

Description

The remote host allows elevation of privileges in its Windows Client/Server run-time subsystem (CSRSS) because of the way CSRSS assigns memory-specific user transactions. An attacker might exploit this to run arbitrary code in the security context of the local system.

Solution

Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows XP and 2003.
