Summary

The WibuKey driver for Windows before version 6.72 does not properly validate user input when calculating the size of a kernel buffer, so a local user with low privileges can write small amounts of data outside the intended kernel buffer (CWE-787). This can crash the system, and under unfavorable circumstances adjacent kernel memory may be modified.

Description from the CNA

In the WibuKey driver for Windows below Version 6.72, insufficient validation of user input when calculating the size of a kernel buffer could cause small amounts of data to be written outside the intended kernel buffer. This can lead to a system crash. Under unfavorable circumstances, adjacent kernel memory may be modified.
