Trend Micro Internet Security Exposed Dangerous Method Information Disclosure Vulnerability

This vulnerability allows local attackers to disclose sensitive information on affected installations of Trend Micro Internet Security. An attacker must first obtain the ability to execute low-privileged code on the target system in order to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the NCIE Scanner module. The module exposes a dangerous function to unprivileged users. An attacker can leverage this in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel.
