Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Microsoft Windows versions 2000 through 2000 SP4 Microsoft Windows versions XP through SP2

Description: A privilege elevation issue exists in the Graphics Rendering Engine, allowing local users to cause a denial of service and gain privileges. This is due to the engine mapping GDI Kernel structures on a global shared memory section that can be remapped by other processes as read-write, enabling modification of kernel structures. The vulnerability could allow a logged-on user to take complete control of the system.

Recommendations: For Microsoft Windows 2000 through 2000 SP4, apply the necessary security patches to fix the Graphics Rendering Engine issue. For Microsoft Windows XP through SP2, apply the necessary security patches to fix the Graphics Rendering Engine issue.
