Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Management Instrumentation allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the way that the Windows Kernel handles objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could execute code with elevated permissions. To exploit the vulnerability, a locally authenticated attacker could run a specially crafted application. The security update addresses the vulnerability by ensuring the Windows Kernel properly handles objects in memory.

Relative path traversal in Microsoft Input Method Editor (IME) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Buffer over-read in Windows Shell allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally.

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists in the Windows Installer when the Windows Installer fails to properly sanitize input leading to an insecure library loading behavior. A locally authenticated attacker could run arbitrary code with elevated system privileges. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the input sanitization error to preclude unintended elevation.

Use after free in Windows Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Integer underflow (wrap or wraparound) in Microsoft QUIC allows an unauthorized attacker to deny service over a network.

Buffer over-read in Windows Message Queuing allows an unauthorized attacker to deny service over a network.

Use after free in Windows iSCSI allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.

Improper link resolution before file access ('link following') in Windows DNS allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.

Use after free in Winlogon allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.

Weak authentication in Windows Management Instrumentation allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
