La Graphics Device Interface (GDI) en Microsoft Windows Vista SP2; Windows Server 2008 SP2 y R2 SP1; Windows 7 SP1; Windows 8.1; Windows Server 2012 Gold y R2; Windows RT 8.1 y Windows 10 Gold, 1511 y 1607 permite a usuarios locales obtener privilegios a través de una aplicación manipulada, vulnerabilidad también conocida como "Windows GDI Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability". Esta vulnerabilidad es distinta de aquellas descritas en CVE-2017-0001, CVE-2017-0005 y CVE-2017-0025.

This vulnerability allows local attackers to escalate privileges on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability.
The specific flaw exists within the code in the Windows kernel that renders icons. By supplying certain parameter values in a call to DrawIconEx, an attacker can trigger an overflow of a buffer. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to escalate privilege to SYSTEM.
