The kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2, Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, and Windows RT Gold and 8.1 allow local users to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via a crafted function call, aka "Microsoft Windows Kernel Memory Disclosure Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2015-1677, CVE-2015-1678, CVE-2015-1679, and CVE-2015-1680.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a local Windows kernel information disclosure issue that can weaken ASLR, a protection that makes exploitation harder. An attacker already able to run code as a local user could use crafted kernel-related calls to learn memory information and pair that advantage with another bug. It is not described as remotely exploitable by itself. Exposure is most likely on unpatched legacy Windows systems listed in the CVE: Server 2003 SP2, Vista SP2, Server 2008 variants, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8/8.1, Server 2012 variants, and Windows RT variants. Treat as a legacy Windows hygiene and defense-in-depth issue. It is not presented as remote code execution, but ASLR bypass can materially help chained attacks on unpatched systems. Mitigation focus: Apply the Microsoft MS15-051 security update where applicable.; Inventory remaining affected Windows versions and patch status.; Retire or isolate unsupported legacy Windows systems..
