Description:
Alan Ridgeway has reported a security issue in PsTools, which potentially can be exploited by malicious users to gain administrative privileges on remote systems.

The problem is that various PsTools utilities fail to properly disconnect from "IPC$" and "ADMIN$" shares after use. This may allow users to use these shares to connect to the remote system with administrative privileges.
