Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Universal Disk Format File System Driver (UDFS) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
AnalysisAI
Heap-based buffer overflow in the Windows Universal Disk Format File System Driver (udfs.sys) enables local privilege escalation to SYSTEM across a broad sweep of Windows client and server versions. An authenticated low-privileged local attacker can trigger the overflow through UDFS volume parsing, achieving full confidentiality, integrity, and availability compromise of the target system (CVSS 7.8, C:H/I:H/A:H). …
