Race condition in Webroot Internet Security Essentials 6.1.0.145 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 CVE describes a bypass of a security product’s blocking logic on Windows XP. A local program already running on the machine could evade Webroot Internet Security Essentials 6.1.0.145 kernel-mode hook checks. The issue is old, platform-specific, and disputed, but relevant for legacy XP estates. Exposure appears limited to Windows XP systems running Webroot Internet Security Essentials 6.1.0.145. The bundle does not prove impact to other Webroot versions, other Windows versions, or products beyond the named configuration. Treat this as a legacy exposure issue, not an emergency internet-scale vulnerability. Prioritize if Windows XP remains in production, especially in regulated or operational environments where endpoint security controls are assumed to compensate for unsupported systems. Mitigation focus: Inventory Windows XP endpoints and confirm whether Webroot Internet Security Essentials 6.1.0.145 is present.; Check Webroot or archived vendor guidance for historical fixes, upgrades, or support statements.; Retire or isolate Windows XP systems where practical..
