CVE-2017-8680 Using Binary Diffing to Discover Windows Kernel Memory Disclosure Bugs - Project Zero
Posted by Mateusz Jurczyk of Google Project Zero
Patch diffing is a common technique of comparing two binary builds of the same code – a known-vulnerable one and one containing a security fix. It is often used to determine the technical details behind ambiguously-worded bulletins, and to establish the root causes, attack vectors and potential variants of the vulnerabilities in question. The approach has attracted plenty of research [1][2][3] and tooling development [4][5][6] over the years, and has been shown to be useful for identifying so-called 1-day bugs, which can be exploited against users who are slow to adopt latest security patches. Overall, the risk of post-patch vulnerability exploitation is inevitable for software which can be freely reverse-engineered, and is thus accepted a

Windows GDI+ Information Disclosure Vulnerability

CVE-2017-8684 [MEDIUM] Windows GDI+ Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Windows GDI+ Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Description: A information disclosure vulnerability exists when the Windows GDI+ component improperly discloses kernel memory addresses. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to further compromise the user’s system.
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an affected system and run a specially crafted application. The vulnerability would not allow an attacker to execute code or to elevate user rights directly, but it could be used to obtain information that could be used to try to further compromise the affected system.
The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the Windows GDI+ component handles objects in memory.
