CVE-2010-5176

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Security Shield 2010 version 13.0.16.313

Description A race condition exists that allows local users to bypass kernel-mode hook handlers and execute dangerous code. This is achieved through certain user-space memory changes during hook-handler execution. The issue is related to a flaw in a protection mechanism for situations where a crafted program has already begun to execute.

Recommendations For Security Shield 2010 version 13.0.16.313, consider disabling the kernel-mode hook handlers as a temporary workaround until a patch is available. Restrict access to user-space memory to minimize the risk of exploitation.
