Description

The Windows kernel-mode drivers in win32k.sys in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3, and Windows Server 2003 SP2, do not properly perform memory allocation before copying user-mode data to kernel mode, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka "Win32k Pool Overflow Vulnerability."
