Microsoft Edge in Microsoft Windows 10 1511, 1607, 1703, and Windows Server 2016 allows an attacker to escape from the AppContainer sandbox, aka "Microsoft Edge Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability". This CVE ID is unique from CVE-2017-8642.

The Microsoft Device Guard on Microsoft Windows 10 Gold, 1511, 1607, and 1703, and Windows Server 2016 allows a security feature bypass by the way it handles Windows PowerShell sessions, aka "Windows Security Feature Bypass".

Incorrect file permissions in BlueStacks 4 through 4.230 on Windows allow a local attacker to escalate privileges by modifying a file that is later executed by a higher-privileged user.

Microsoft Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1, Windows Server 2012 and R2, Windows 10 Gold, 1511, 1607, 1703, and Windows Server 2016 allows an elevation of privilege vulnerability due to the way that the Windows Common Log File System (CLFS) driver handles objects in memory, aka "Windows CLFS Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability".

The ReadDirectoryChangesW API function on Microsoft Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, and Vista does not check permissions for child objects, which allows local users to bypass permissions by opening a directory with LIST (READ) access and using ReadDirectoryChangesW to monitor changes of files that do not have LIST permissions, which can be leveraged to determine filenames, access times, and other sensitive information.

The default permissions for the SNMP Parameters registry key in Windows NT 4.0 allows remote attackers to read and possibly modify the SNMP community strings to obtain sensitive information or modify network configuration, aka one of the "Registry Permissions" vulnerabilities.

The Mozilla Windows updater modifies some files to be updated by reading the original file and applying changes to it. The location of the original file can be altered by a malicious user by passing a special path to the callback parameter through the Mozilla Maintenance Service, allowing the manipulation of files in the installation directory and privilege escalation by manipulating the Mozilla Maintenance Service, which has privileged access. Note: This attack requires local system access and only affects Windows. Other operating systems are not affected. This vulnerability affects Firefox ESR < 52.2 and Firefox < 54.

The Input Method Editor (IME) in the Simplified Chinese version of Windows 2000 does not disable access to privileged functionality that should normally be restricted, which allows local users to gain privileges, aka the "Simplified Chinese IME State Recognition" vulnerability.

Windows Shell Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

NVIDIA Windows GPU Display Driver contains a vulnerability in the kernel mode layer (nvlddmkm.sys) handler for DxgkDdiEscape where a value passed from a user to the driver is not correctly validated and used as the index to an array which may lead to denial of service or potential escalation of privileges.

A Windows NT user can use SUBST to map a drive letter to a folder, which is not unmapped after the user logs off, potentially allowing that user to modify the location of folders accessed by later users.
