CVE-2007-5086: Kaspersky Anti-Virus (KAV) and Internet Security 7.0 build 125 do not properly validate certain parameters...

Kaspersky Anti-Virus (KAV) and Internet Security 7.0 build 125 do not properly validate certain parameters to System Service Descriptor Table (SSDT) and Shadow SSDT function handlers, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via the (1) NtUserSendInput, (2) LoadLibraryA, (3) NtOpenProcess, (4) NtOpenThread, (5) NtTerminateProcess, (6) NtUserFindWindowEx, and (7) NtUserBuildHwndList kernel SSDT hooks in kylif.sys; the (8) NtDuplicateObject (DuplicateHandle) kernel SSDT hook; and possibly other kernel SSDT hooks. NOTE: the NtCreateSection vector is covered by CVE-2007-5043.1. NOTE: the vendor disputes that the DuplicateHandle vector is a vulnerability in their code, stating that "it is not an error in our code, but an obscure method for manipulating standard Windows routines to circumvent our self-defense mechanisms."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old local denial-of-service issue in Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Internet Security 7.0 build 125. A user with local access could trigger crashes through kernel hook handling. It is primarily an availability risk for legacy endpoints, not a remote compromise issue based on the supplied sources. Exposure is likely limited to Windows systems still running Kaspersky Anti-Virus or Internet Security 7.0 build 125 or the associated legacy driver. Current products are not identified as affected in the provided sources. Treat this as a targeted legacy cleanup item. It is not currently supported as an active internet-scale threat, but affected systems can suffer avoidable outages from local users or malware already present on the host. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire Kaspersky 7.0 build 125 installations.; Check Kaspersky guidance for fixed builds or supported upgrade paths.; Remove unsupported legacy antivirus components where replacement is available..
