Technical Analysis
Ah, another day, another Win32k privilege escalation used in the wild. Securelist has a good write-up on this bug, which they discovered because it was used in a BITTER APT zero-day attack in (it sounds like) conjunction with CVE-2021-1732 (there’s a Metasploit module for the second vuln).
