System crash via arbitrary physical-memory mapping
Published May 26, 2024 · Updated Feb 13, 2025
Incorrect authorization in Hw64.sys in Marvin Test HW.exe before 5.0.5.0 allows local users to trigger a Windows system crash. Multiple IOCTL handlers pass caller-selected physical addresses to MmMapIoSpace and expose read/write mappings to unprivileged user-mode processes. Local low-privilege access is required, and exploitation can force a blue-screen crash that interrupts the affected Windows host.
