CVE-2008-5049
Status: ModifiedHigh (7.2)—
Buffer overflow in AKEProtect.sys 3.3.3.0 in ISecSoft Anti-Keylogger Elite 3.3.0 and earlier, and possibly other versions including 3.3.3, allows local users to gain privileges via long inputs to the (1) 0x002224A4, (2) 0x002224C0, and (3) 0x002224CC IOCTL.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
- Base score: 7.2
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.93%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 59
- Score date: 10/4/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
