Description

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows improperly handles calls to the LUAFV driver (luafv.sys). An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could set the short name of a file with a long name to an arbitrary short name, overriding the file system with limited privileges. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows handles calls to LUAFV.
