DescriptionCVE.org

A vulnerability was found in BioStar BIOS Update Utility 1.9.7.3. This issue affects the function sub_110BC of the file BSMEM64_W10.sys of the component IOCTL Handler. The manipulation of the argument PhysicalAddress/Size results in write-what-where condition. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been made public and could be used. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

AnalysisAI

Local privilege escalation in BioStar BIOS Update Utility 1.9.7.3 enables a low-privileged local attacker to gain kernel-level code execution on Windows via a write-what-where condition in the BSMEM64_W10.sys driver. The driver's IOCTL handler (sub_110BC) fails to validate user-supplied PhysicalAddress and Size parameters, resulting in arbitrary physical memory writes. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires local code execution on a Windows host where the vulnerable BSMEM64_W10.sys driver (from BioStar BIOS Update Utility 1.9.7.3) is loaded, plus the ability to open a handle to its device and issue IOCTLs to the sub_110BC handler with attacker-chosen PhysicalAddress/Size values. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a genuine local privilege-escalation priority despite lacking network reach. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch is identified at time of analysis, as the vendor did not respond to disclosure. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, uninstall or disable the BioStar BIOS Update Utility 1.9.7.3 from all Windows systems and block the BSMEM64_W10.sys driver via application control or renaming; if removal is not possible, restrict local interactive logon to trusted administrators only. …
