It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-0078 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Windows 8. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0078/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0078/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-0078","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0078/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-0078","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-g4g8-7f45-c3gw"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Windows kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Local attackers can gain elevated privileges by exploiting improper token validation in the Windows kernel driver win32k.sys.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"windows_8","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_8.1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_rt","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_rt_8.1","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"windows_server_2012","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-264","name":null}],"description":"win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, and Windows RT Gold and 8.1 does not properly validate the token of a calling thread, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application, aka \"Win32k Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability.\"","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0078","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:windows_8","products":["microsoft:windows_8","microsoft:windows_8.1","microsoft:windows_rt","microsoft:windows_rt_8.1","microsoft:windows_server_2012"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0079"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-0077"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-03-11","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-2558","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-03-13"},{"cvss_score":7.9,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3898","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-11-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-0254","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-02-12"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-1305","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-05-15"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-2362","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-07-14"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4074","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-09-10"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can gain elevated privileges by exploiting improper token validation in the Windows kernel driver win32k.sys.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-0078/"}
