Loading vulnerability…
A privilege escalation vulnerability in a Windows kernel-mode driver. The available information identifies the issue as affecting the Windows kernel-mode driver component and classifies it as an elevation of privilege flaw, but does not provide technical detail about the vulnerable code path, root cause, triggering conditions, or exploitation mechanism.

This repository contains proof-of-concept (PoC) exploits and detailed technical reports for two Windows kernel vulnerabilities (CVE-2024-43570 and CVE-2024-43535) in the Transaction Manager (tm.sys) driver. The vulnerabilities are use-after-free (UAF) conditions triggered by race conditions in the handling of Transaction Manager objects, specifically during transaction promotion and enlistment migration. The exploit code is written in C and leverages advanced kernel exploitation techniques, including pool spraying with named pipes and precise thread/core manipulation to win race conditions. The repository is organized into demo and report directories for each vulnerability, with PoC code, helper headers, windbg logs, and JavaScript scripts for debugging and patching. The main attack vector is local privilege escalation on a Windows system where the attacker can execute code as the DTC SID and has access to a clustered disk. The code is mature as a PoC and demonstrates reliable kernel crashes and UAF triggers, but does not include a fully weaponized payload for arbitrary code execution. The repository is highly technical and intended for advanced kernel security researchers.
