Tags kaspersky antivirus
Affected Systems:
Kaspersky Labs Kaspersky Antivirus 5.0.335
Kaspersky Labs Kaspersky Antivirus 5.0.228
Kaspersky Labs Kaspersky Antivirus 5.0.227
Description:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kaspersky is a very popular anti-virus software.

A vulnerability exists in the Kaspersky Software Design on Microsoft Windows 2000. Local attackers may exploit this vulnerability to escalate their permissions.

The cause is that the Kaspersky kernel driver klif. sys does not correctly Discard high permissions. Attackers may exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with the system kernel permission.
