Multiple F-Secure Real-time scanning privilege escalation
| fsecure-realtime-privilege-escalation (34579) |  Medium Risk |
Description:
Multiple F-Secure Anti-Virus applications could allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges, caused by improper validation of address space by the Real-time Scanning component. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially-crafted IRP request to gain elevated privileges on the system.
