| Detailed Description |
The hotfix (MS14-045, 2984615) for 'Vulnerabilities in Kernel-Mode Drivers Could Allow Elevation of Privilege' has not been applied.
This security update resolves three privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on to the system and runs a specially crafted application. An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to log on locally to exploit these vulnerabilities.
- Win32k Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability(CVE-2014-0318)
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the Windows kernel-mode driver improperly handles window handle thread-owned 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 administrative rights.
- Font Double-Fetch Vulnerability(CVE-2014-1819)
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the way that the affected component handles objects from specially crafted font files. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges.
- Windows Kernel Pool Allocation Vulnerability (CVE-2014-4064)
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the way Windows kernel memory is managed. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could use it to disclose memory addresses or other sensitive kernel information.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of this condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
