Speedfan.sys in Alfredo Milani Comparetti SpeedFan 4.33, when used on Microsoft Windows Vista x64, does not properly check a buffer during an IOCTL 0x9c402420 call, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (machine crash) and possibly gain privileges via unspecified vectors.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
