CVEs are created all the time and vendors refuse to fix them. It is up to the vendor to decide if they think it is a legitimate problem. Microsoft, for example, has refused to fix literally hundreds of CVEs over the years. It takes a lot more than just a CVE. Just because the CVE is created, that does not mean something is a real threat. Obviously you did not know this fact.The CVE is a standard weighted vulnability and exposure assessment, above 7 is a serious problem.
You just provided a basic definition. The bug does not state that the overwrite can be made everywhere on the system (which, by the way it cannot because of Windows' own built-in permissions structure).Overwrite file contents with NULL bytes means that they are overwritten with low values (all zeroes).
So again, please give a specific example of how that bug can be used to compromise a system?
lol, why are you just stating the definition? Where is the proof that it is a real problem?With Set and Delete Volume Mount points you can set and delete the links and references of a folder structure.
Really? Please explain - you have to give examples, not generalizations - of how the mount point function can be used to mess with data. Can it be used to definitely unmount the operating system drive? Explain how a created mount point can be used to manipulate data whenever there is no other process that has escaped the sandbox?This means you can mess around with data (for instance to escape the sandbox).
