Loading vulnerability…
CVE-2010-2743 is a local privilege escalation vulnerability in kernel-mode drivers on Microsoft Windows XP SP3. During loading of keyboard layouts from disk, the affected code does not properly validate or perform indexing into a function-pointer table. A local attacker can supply a crafted application that triggers this flawed indexing behavior, leading to execution of attacker-controlled code in kernel context. The issue was publicly associated with in-the-wild exploitation by the Stuxnet worm in July 2010 and is commonly referred to as the Win32k Keyboard Layout Vulnerability. The available source also notes that this issue might be a duplicate of CVE-2010-3888 or CVE-2010-3889.
