An elevation of privilege (user to user) vulnerability exists in Windows Security Health Service when handling certain objects in memory. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted command that could exploit the vulnerability to elevate privileges. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows Security Health Service handles certain objects in memory.
With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
