Description The issue is related to the SMB server component in Microsoft Windows, which has inadequate access restrictions. This allows a local attacker to gain elevated privileges by using a specially crafted application that forwards an authentication request to an unintended service. The vulnerability can be exploited to affect the system.

Recommendations For Microsoft Windows Vista SP2, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Windows 7 SP1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Windows 8.1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Windows RT 8.1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Windows 10 Gold and 1511, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the SMB server component until a patch is available.
