Description:
David Matousek has discovered a vulnerability in BlackICE PC Protection, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerability is cause due to an error in RapDrv.sys in the handling of the object attribute parameter in the "NtOpenSection()" API hook. This can be exploited to crash a vulnerable system via the "NtOpenSection()" API where the third parameter is set to NULL.
