| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in virtio-win. A low-integrity process can issue an IOCTL request to viosock.sys!VIOSockSelect with a maliciously crafted request that causes an integer overflow. This allows the process to circumvent bounds checking, resulting in a heap overflow in the NonPagedPool kernel heap. The flaw could be exploited to escalate privileges on Windows systems running this driver.
