Base vector

AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: K7 Total Security versions prior to 15.1.0.305

Description: The issue arises from insufficient sanitization of user-controlled input to the K7Sentry device, allowing the input to compare an arbitrary memory address with a fixed value. This can be exploited to read the contents of arbitrary memory. Additionally, the product crashes when a DeviceIoControl call is made to the K7Sentry device with an invalid kernel pointer.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 15.1.0.305, update to version 15.1.0.305 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the K7Sentry device to minimize the risk of exploitation.
