Description:Summary:
Microsoft Windows operating system is prone to a privilege escalation
vulnerability.

This VT has been replaced by OID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.900740.

Vulnerability Insight:
This issue is due to the kernel not properly handling certain
exceptions when setting up a VDM (Virtual DOS Machine) context, which
allows users to gain kernel privileges by setting up a crafted 'DM_TIB'
in their 'TEB' and reach the 'Ki386BiosCallReturnAddress()' function via
the '#GP trap handler (nt!KiTrap0D)'.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation will allow remote attackers to bypass
certain security restrictions or can gain escalated privileges via specially crafted attack.

Affected Software/OS:
- Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 3 and prior

- Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 and prior

- Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 and prior

Solution:
No known solution was made available for at least one year since the disclosure

release, disable respective features, remove the product or replace the product by another one.
