Vulnerability CVE-2020-15480


Published: 2020-08-07

Description:
An issue was discovered in PassMark BurnInTest through 9.1, OSForensics through 7.1, and PerformanceTest through 10. The kernel driver exposes IOCTL functionality that allows low-privilege users to map arbitrary physical memory into the address space of the calling process. This could lead to arbitrary Ring-0 code execution and escalation of privileges. This affects DirectIo32.sys and DirectIo64.sys.

Type:

CWE-119

(Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer)
