- →Exploitation requires winning a race condition against the Microsoft Streaming Service (MSKSSRV.SYS) to achieve SYSTEM-level privilege escalation ↗
- →Target component is Microsoft Streaming Service; monitor for unexpected privilege escalation originating from streaming service interactions ↗
- →Successful exploitation results in SYSTEM privileges; alert on processes spawning with SYSTEM integrity from non-SYSTEM parent processes interacting with the Streaming Service ↗
- ·Exploitation is rated 'Exploitation Less Likely' by Microsoft and has not been publicly disclosed or observed in the wild at time of publication ↗
- ·Attack complexity is HIGH due to the race condition requirement, reducing the likelihood of reliable exploitation ↗
