Any indication of whether this was actually exploited?
I really don't want to do a full key-rotation routine.
Also, does windows 7 map the entire address space into kernel memory? That is, would this have enabled direct memory access to other processors.
- MarkSweep 9y agoMy understanding of the article is that the page table itself was writable. So you an attacking process could map in the entire memory of the computer and read everything, regardless of what was in the kernel's version page table.
- caf 9y agoThe attacking process could also put whatever code it wanted into the kernel, and so give itself full access to everything on disk as well.
