Race condition in VirusBuster Internet Security Suite 3.2 on Windows XP allows local users to bypass kernel-mode hook handlers, and execute dangerous code that would otherwise be blocked by a handler but not blocked by signature-based malware detection, via certain user-space memory changes during hook-handler execution, aka an argument-switch attack or a KHOBE attack. NOTE: this issue is disputed by some third parties because it is a flaw in a protection mechanism for situations where a crafted program has already begun to execute

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy endpoint-protection bypass affecting VirusBuster Internet Security Suite 3.2 on Windows XP. A local program already running on the machine may evade certain kernel hook checks. The issue is disputed because it concerns a protection layer after code execution has already begun. Exposure appears limited to legacy Windows XP systems running VirusBuster Internet Security Suite 3.2. The bundle does not identify broader affected products, supported versions, or internet-facing exposure. Treat this as a legacy-risk cleanup item unless affected systems are still present. Priority rises if Windows XP endpoints remain operational in sensitive environments or rely on this product for malware prevention. Mitigation focus: Inventory Windows XP systems and VirusBuster Internet Security Suite 3.2 installations.; Check VirusBuster or successor vendor guidance for fixes or retirement advice.; Replace unsupported operating systems and endpoint security software where feasible..
