Detailed Description |
The Hotfix (MS15-090, 3060716) for 'Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows Could Allow Elevation of Privilege' has not been applied. This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on to an affected system and runs a specially crafted application or convinces a user to open a specially crafted file that invokes a vulnerable sandboxed application, allowing an attacker to escape the sandbox.
Windows Object Manager Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability - CVE-2015-2428 An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in Windows Object Manager 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.
Windows Registry Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability - CVE-2015-2429 An elevation of privilege exists in Microsoft Windows when it improperly allows certain registry interactions from within vulnerable sandboxed applications. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could improperly interact with the registry and attempt to escape the application sandbox.
Windows Filesystem Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability - CVE-2015-2430 An elevation of privilege exists in Microsoft Windows when it improperly allows certain filesystem interactions from within vulnerable sandboxed applications. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could improperly interact with the filesystem and attempt to escape the application sandbox.
