Description
win32k.sys in the kernel-mode drivers in Microsoft Windows Vista SP1 and SP2, Windows Server 2008 Gold, SP2, R2, and R2 SP1, and Windows 7 Gold and SP1 allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted application that triggers a NULL pointer dereference, a different vulnerability than other CVEs listed in MS11-054, aka "Win32k Null Pointer De-reference Vulnerability."
