#vulnerability
Improper input validation in Windows LDAP - Lightweight Directory Access Protocol allows an authorized attacker to perform tampering over a network.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.
Exposure of sensitive information to an unauthorized actor in Tablet Windows User Interface (TWINUI) Subsystem allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally.
Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Tablet Windows User Interface (TWINUI) Subsystem allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Improper access control in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally.
**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R). What interaction would the user have to do?** Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted file. \* In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. \* In a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided content) containing a specially crafted file designed to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or instant message, and then convince them to open the specially crafted file.
**According to the CVSS metrics, successful exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to some loss of confidentiality (C:L),but lead to no loss of availability (A:N) and integrity (I:N)? What does that mean for this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could view some sensitive information (Confidentiality) but not all resources within the impacted component may be divulged to the attacker. The attacker cannot make changes to disclosed information (Integrity) or limit access to the resource (Availability).
**According to the CVSS metric, a successful exploitation could lead to a scope change (S:C). What does this mean for this vulnerability?** In a GPU paravirtualization scenario, an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could traverse the guest’s security boundary to gain access to the host environment.
**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if an attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is one byte of kernel memory could be leaked back to the attacker.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Common Log File System Driver allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
