Descriptions

win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2, R2, and R2 SP1, and Windows 7 Gold and SP1 does not properly validate user-mode input, which allows local users to gain privileges or cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted application, aka "Win32k Null Pointer De-reference Vulnerability."

win32k.sys en los controladores en modo kernel de Microsoft Windows XP SP2 y SP3, Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2, R2 y R2 SP1, y Windows 7 Gold y SP1 no valida correctamente la entrada de datos en modo de usuario, lo que permite a usuarios locales conseguir privilegios o causar una denegación de servicio (puntero a NULL y caída del sistema) a través de una aplicación específicamente creada. También conocida como "vulnerabilidad de referencia a puntero nulo en Win32k".
