Technical details

A heap-based buffer overflow exists in Windows OLE DB that allows a local, authenticated attacker to trigger memory corruption. By crafting malicious input, an attacker can overwrite heap memory to elevate their privileges from a standard user account to a higher privilege level. The vulnerability requires prior authentication and local code execution capability.
