Summary

Uncontrolled search path in Display Virtualization for Windows OS software before version 1797 within Ring 2: Device Drivers may allow an escalation of privilege. An unprivileged authenticated user with a high-complexity attack can escalate privileges via local access, requiring active user interaction.

Risk Assessment

This can lead to privilege escalation, potentially compromising confidentiality, integrity, and availability. It requires an authenticated user and high attack complexity, but the impact can be severe.

Recommendation

Update Display Virtualization for Windows OS software to version 1797 or later. Restrict user privileges and monitor local activity.

Original NVD description (English source)

Uncontrolled search path for some Display Virtualization for Windows OS software before version 1797 within Ring 2: Device Drivers may allow an escalation of privilege. Unprivileged software adversary with an authenticated user combined with a high complexity attack may enable escalation of privilege. This result may potentially occur via local access when attack requirements are present without special internal knowledge and requires active user interaction. The potential vulnerability may impact the confidentiality (high), integrity (high) and availability (high) of the vulnerable system, resulting in subsequent system confidentiality (none), integrity (none) and availability (none) impacts.
