TITLE

plural ESET Used in products ESET Personal Firewall NDIS Vulnerability in the acquisition of important information in the filter kernel mode driver

Trust: 0.8

sources: JVNDB: JVNDB-2014-005235

DESCRIPTION

The ESET Personal Firewall NDIS filter (EpFwNdis.sys) kernel mode driver, aka Personal Firewall module before Build 1212 (20140609), as used in multiple ESET products 5.0 through 7.0, allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel memory via crafted IOCTL calls. Multiple ESET Products are prone to a local information-disclosure vulnerability. Local attackers can exploit this issue to obtain sensitive information. Information obtained may lead to further attacks. Both ESET Smart Security and ESET Endpoint Security are security package solutions from ESET in Slovakia, which include functions such as virus defense and cleaning, anti-spam and firewall; the former is the home version, and the latter is the business version. The vulnerability is caused by improper validation for some IOCTLs.
