Win32k Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

A flaw in Windows' graphics system (Win32k) allows a user with basic access to gain administrative control over the computer. An attacker needs to run malicious code locally to exploit this vulnerability.

A privilege escalation vulnerability in the Win32k kernel component allows an authenticated local attacker to execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges through a specially crafted interaction with the graphics subsystem. Exploitation requires prior code execution in user-mode context and results in complete system compromise.
