Windows COM Session Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
CVE-2017-0100 is fixed in 20 products on 1 platform, first by KB4013198, released March 14, 2017. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
<p>An elevation of privilege exists in Windows when a DCOM object in Helppane.exe, configured to run as the interactive user, fails to properly authenticate the client. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in another user's session.</p> <p>To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability after another user logged on to the same system via Terminal Services or Fast User Switching.</p> <p>The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Helppane.exe authenticates the client.</p>
