Detailed Description |
The Hotfix (MS15-008, 3019215) for 'Vulnerability in Windows Kernel-Mode Driver Could Allow Elevation of Privilege' has not been applied. This security update resolves one privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker runs a specially crafted application on an affected system. An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to log on locally to exploit the vulnerability.
- WebDAV Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability (CVE-2015-0011) An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the WebDAV kernel-mode driver (mrxdav.sys) when it fails to properly validate and enforce impersonation levels. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could bypass impersonation-level security and gain elevated privileges on a targeted system, which could allow them to intercept WebDAV requests for files from any server (including corporate SharePoint sites) and redirect those file requests to return any, potentially malicious, files of the attacker's choosing.
* 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.
