Windows Hyper-V NT Kernel Integration VSP Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

A security flaw in Windows Hyper-V allows a local attacker with basic user privileges to gain higher-level system access by exploiting a memory management issue in the kernel integration component. This is dangerous because it gives attackers administrative control over the system.

A use-after-free vulnerability (CWE-416) exists in the Hyper-V NT Kernel Integration VSP component, allowing a local attacker to achieve privilege escalation through exploitation of freed memory regions. The attack requires local code execution with standard user privileges and results in kernel-level code execution.
