Description:
mu-b has reported some vulnerabilities in DESlock+, which can be exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or gain escalated privileges.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to input validation errors in DLMFDISK.sys and DLMFENC.sys and can be exploited to e.g. execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges or cause the system to crash via specially crafted arguments passed to certain IOCTL handlers.

The vulnerabilities are reported in version 3.2.6. Prior versions may also be affected.

Solution:
Update to version 3.2.7.
