CVE-2007-5350: Unspecified vulnerability in the Windows Advanced Local Procedure Call (ALPC) in the kernel in Microsoft Wi...

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old Windows Vista kernel issue in Advanced Local Procedure Call. A person or malware already running locally could gain higher privileges through unspecified legacy reply path behavior. It is not described as remote compromise by itself. Exposure is most likely limited to Microsoft Windows Vista systems that have not applied the relevant Microsoft MS07-066 guidance. The bundle does not identify other Windows versions, server products, or third-party products as affected. Treat this as a legacy Windows exposure check, not an internet-wide emergency. Any remaining Windows Vista host deserves attention because kernel privilege escalation can turn a limited local compromise into full system control. Mitigation focus: Identify any Microsoft Windows Vista hosts in the environment.; Review and apply Microsoft MS07-066 guidance where applicable.; Check CERT/US-CERT advisories for operational guidance..
