SYSTEM privilege escalation via kernel integer overflow
Published Jul 11, 2023 · Updated Jan 1, 2025
Integer overflow in the Microsoft Windows kernel allows local users with low privileges to elevate access to SYSTEM. Microsoft has not disclosed the affected kernel routine, the untrusted value involved, or the arithmetic operation that overflows. Exploitation requires local low-privileged access and grants full control beyond the initiating account's security boundary.
