Description

The MsIo64.sys component in Asus Aura Sync through v1.07.79 does not properly validate input to IOCTL 0x80102040, 0x80102044, 0x80102050, and 0x80102054, allowing attackers to trigger a memory corruption and cause a Denial of Service (DoS) or escalate privileges via crafted IOCTL requests.
