Windows Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

<p>An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Microsoft Windows fails to properly sanitize handles in memory.</p> <p>An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code as System. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.</p> <p>To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application designed to elevate privileges. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows sanitizes handles in memory.</p>
