CVE-2008-7211

Status: ModifiedMedium (6.9)—

CreativeLabs es1371mp.sys 5.1.3612.0 WDM audio driver, as used in Ensoniq PCI 1371 sound cards and when running on Windows Vista, does not create a Functional Device Object (FDO) to prevent user-moade access to the Physical Device Object (PDO), which allows local users to gain SYSTEM privileges via a crafted IRP request that dereferences a NULL FsContext pointer.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

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).
