Description

Privilege Escalation vulnerability in McAfee Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Endpoint for Windows prior to 11.6.100 allows a local, low privileged, attacker to write to arbitrary controlled kernel addresses. This is achieved by launching applications, suspending them, modifying the memory and restarting them when they are monitored by McAfee DLP through the hdlphook driver. ANd Denial of Service allows a local, low privileged, attacker to cause BSoD through suspending a process, modifying the processes memory and restarting it. This is triggered by the hdlphook driver reading invalid memory.
