CVE-2024-12653Public exploit

Local system crash via null pointer dereference

Published Dec 16, 2024 · Updated Dec 16, 2024

Null pointer dereference in FabulaTech USB over Network Client 6.0.6.1 allows local users to crash Windows through IOCTL 0x22040C. The ftusbbus2.sys IOCTL handler dereferences a null pointer when it processes a crafted 0x22040C request, causing a system-level availability failure. Low-privileged local access to the installed Windows client driver is required, and the reported consequence is a host crash with no confidentiality or integrity impact.
