Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in the Microsoft Windows, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or gain escalated privileges.

1) A boundary error within the processing of certain font files can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow and gain escalated privileges by loading a malicious font.

2) An error in the validation of certain access requests in the Windows Kernel can be exploited to gain escalated privileges by running a specially crafted program.

3) A boundary error in the Object Management can be exploited to cause the system to stop responding and restart by running a specially crafted program.

4) A boundary error in the CSRSS (Client Server Runtime System) can be exploited to cause a stack based buffer overflow and gain escalated privileges by running a specially crafted program.
