Description

Microsoft Windows contains a flaw that may allow an attacker to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when win32k.sys's NtGdiEnableEUDC API does not properly validate some user-inputs, causing a stack overflow. This will allow a local attacker to gain kernel mode privileges and execute arbitrary code.
