Description

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Windows Error Reporting improperly handles objects in memory. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to gain execution on the victim system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application to elevate privileges. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows Error Reporting handles objects in memory.
