Microsoft Windows Kernel-Mode Driver Improper Message Handling Vulnerability

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when the Windows kernel improperly handles window broadcast messages. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
