CHECK POINT ZONE LABS  PRODUCTS
MULTIPLE LOCAL PRIVILEGE ESCALATION VULNERABILITIES

Vsdatant.sys is exposed via “\\.\vsdatant”. The permissive ACL allows
everyone to invoke privileged IOCTLs implemented in the driver.

The flaw exists due to insufficient buffer validation when the driver
processes  METHOD_NEITHER IOCTLs. Thus an attacker can send a specially
crafted I/O request in order to overwrite arbitrary kernel memory.
