The OAmon.sys kernel driver 3.1.0.0 and earlier in Tall Emu Online Armor Personal Firewall AV+ before 3.5.0.12, and Personal Firewall 3.5 before 3.5.0.14, allows local users to gain privileges via crafted METHOD_NEITHER IOCTL requests to \Device\OAmon containing arbitrary kernel addresses, as demonstrated using the 0x830020C3 IOCTL.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2009-2450 is a local privilege escalation in Tall Emu Online Armor firewall products. A user already able to run code on a Windows machine could abuse the OAmon.sys kernel driver to gain higher privileges. It matters most where old Online Armor installs remain on endpoints, especially shared or lightly controlled systems. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Windows endpoints running the affected Tall Emu Online Armor products and vulnerable OAmon.sys driver versions. Systems without this driver are not indicated as affected by the supplied sources. Treat as high priority only if legacy Online Armor remains deployed. The business risk is local privilege escalation on affected Windows endpoints, not broad remote compromise. Confirm inventory first, then remove or upgrade affected installations. Mitigation focus: Upgrade beyond the vulnerable Online Armor versions named in the CVE description.; Remove unsupported or unnecessary Online Armor installations from endpoints.; Check vendor or trusted archival guidance before relying on compensating controls..
