| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Windows XP version SP2
Description
A privilege elevation issue exists in the way the Window Image Acquisition (WIA) Service starts applications, potentially allowing a logged-on user to gain complete control of the system. The issue involves an unspecified vector, probably related to an unchecked buffer, which could be a buffer overflow.
Recommendations
For Windows XP version SP2, consider disabling the WIA Service as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to the WIA Service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
