Unsecure Drivers Allow for Easy Windows Hacking: Report

Eclypsium researchers have identified 40 poorly designed drivers from 20 vendors that can give attackers numerous ways to hack into various versions of Microsoft Windows. The researchers presented their findings at the 2019 DEF CON security conference in Las Vegas last week. The study did not identify any attacks using these drivers in the wild, but the researchers’ presentation offered some scenarios of how attackers could exploit these flaws. Microsoft is now working with Eclypium to blacklist these bad drivers from all versions of Windows, the researchers said.”]
