CVE-2010-0705: Aavmker4.sys in avast!

Aavmker4.sys in avast! 4.8 through 4.8.1368.0 and 5.0 before 5.0.418.0 running on Windows 2000 and XP does not properly validate input to IOCTL 0xb2d60030, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (system crash) or execute arbitrary code to gain privileges via IOCTL requests using crafted kernel addresses that trigger memory corruption.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy avast! Windows driver flaw that could let a local user crash the machine or gain higher privileges. It matters mainly where old Avast versions still run on Windows 2000 or XP. There is no provided evidence of active exploitation. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Windows 2000/XP systems running the named avast! 4.8 or early 5.0 driver versions. Treat as high priority only if legacy Avast on Windows 2000/XP remains in use. Otherwise, document as historical technical debt with low current business exposure. Mitigation focus: Upgrade avast! 5.0 installations to 5.0.418.0 or later.; Replace or remove affected avast! 4.8 installations where still present.; Retire Windows 2000 and XP endpoints where business constraints allow..
