CVE-2007-1211 is a denial-of-service vulnerability in unspecified kernel GDI functions in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP SP2, and Windows Server 2003 Gold, SP1, and SP2. The flaw is triggered when the operating system processes a crafted Windows Metafile image and performs an invalid dereference of an offset in a kernel structure after that offset is no longer valid. This is consistent with an expired-pointer or stale-reference condition and is related to the class of issue previously tracked as CVE-2005-4560. Successful exploitation can crash the affected system during image handling in kernel context.
