A mishandling of IRP requests vulnerability exists in the HDAudBus_DMA interface of Microsoft High Definition Audio Bus Driver 10.0.19041.3636 (WinBuild.160101.0800). A specially crafted application can issue multiple IRP Complete requests which leads to a local denial-of-service. An attacker can execute malicious script/application to trigger this vulnerability.

Weakness

The product does not maintain or incorrectly maintains control over a resource throughout its lifetime of creation, use, and release.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
High_definition_audio_bus_driver Microsoft 10.0.19041.3636 (including) 10.0.19041.3636 (including)

Extended Description

Resources often have explicit instructions on how to be created, used and destroyed. When code does not follow these instructions, it can lead to unexpected behaviors and potentially exploitable states. Even without explicit instructions, various principles are expected to be adhered to, such as “Do not use an object until after its creation is complete,” or “do not use an object after it has been slated for destruction.”
