CVE-2023-1189 is a local denial of service vulnerability in WiseCleaner Wise Folder Hider version 4.4.3.202. The issue resides in the IoControlCode handler functions (0x222400/0x222404/0x222410) within the WiseFs64.sys driver. Improper handling of IOCTL requests in these functions allows a local attacker to trigger a system crash (BSOD) by sending crafted IOCTLs to the driver.

This repository provides a proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit for CVE-2023-1189, a local denial of service vulnerability in WiseCleaner Wise Folder Hider version 4.4.3.202. The vulnerability exists in the WiseFs64.sys kernel driver, which fails to properly validate input buffers for certain IOCTL codes (0x222400, 0x222404, 0x222410). The included C code (poc_exploit/CVE-2023-1189.c) demonstrates how to open a handle to the device interface (\\.\WiseFS) and (commented out) send malicious IOCTL requests with a NULL buffer, which would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the driver and cause a system crash (BSOD). The exploit requires local access and does not provide privilege escalation or remote code execution, but can be used to disrupt system availability. The repository consists of a detailed README.md explaining the vulnerability and a single C PoC file.
